Read “French Resistance – The Right to Self-Defense” by Charles de Gaulle and summarize the author’s argument without context with the Toulmin Method and analyze his effectiveness in a 2-page paper.
Remember, this is analysis of regular rhetorical strategies, so it will be very similar to the second 2-page paper on Benatar. My notes that I gave you on that one will be helpful to review in preparing for this one. Remember also that the point of this paper is analysis, not summary. Obviously summary is required, but only enough to then analyze what you’ve just summarized.
As toward the format, you’ll probably want an introductory paragraph with the author’s name (Charles De Gaulle), the pamphlet’s title (“The Right to Self-Defense”), the author’s Main Claim (that the French have a right to defend themselves against their German occupiers), and whether or not you will find it effective.
There should be about two or three body paragraphs, and these body paragraphs will look at two or three Reasonings the author has to support his Main Claim. Summarize the Reasonings, quote where you find them (and cite it), then analyze the effectiveness of the rhetorical strategies being used to make those Reasonings. Remember that it is not enough to simply claim that the strategies are effective or ineffective and then move on. You have to prove to me that the specific use of the rhetorical strategy you are analyzing is either effective or ineffective to the average reader. Your paper will be graded on your ability to convince your reader of the author’s effectiveness or ineffectiveness (and your Grammatical correctness, obviously). For now, avoid any context on the reading or the author, as we’ll add that later in another paper. Analyze the argument in a vacuum of context. (You’ll like Charles de Gaulle, though. He’s awesome.)
You will also want a conclusion paragraph which adds no new information to your analysis, but rather summarizes your body paragraphs and restates your Main Claim about the author’s effectiveness or ineffectiveness.
This assignment will deal with the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th SLOs pointed out in the Syllabus.
You do not need a Works Cited for this paper, but you do need:
At least 2 pages of writing.
And standard MLA formatting, including an MLA introduction.
Note: If you’re rusty on how to analyze, see the Analysis Worksheet and review my notes on your first 2-page paper.
Here is the rubric:
A – Student has turned in a paper before the cut-off point that is full-length, with minimal formatting or grammatical issues and conforming to the standard MLA format, and including (if required) a Works Cited page. The student’s analysis demonstrates understanding and mastery of Rhetorical Strategies, Modes, and the Toulmin Method. The paper only briefly summarizes the author’s points in order to analyze them. Analysis effectively supports a claim (about the level of persuasiveness shown by the argument being analyzed), and would convince an unbiased but rhetorically educated audience to agree with that claim through careful and logical argumentation.
B – The student’s analysis demonstrates understanding of Rhetorical Strategies, Modes, and the Toulmin Method. There may be equal parts of summary as analysis. The analysis effectively supports a claim (about the level of persuasiveness shown by the argument being analyzed), and would convince an unbiased but rhetorically educated audience to agree with that claim through careful and logical argumentation. Formatting or grammatical errors may be keeping this from an A grade. If the paper is no more than half-a-page too short, is missing a Works Cited page, has regular formatting or grammatical issues, or was turned in late, it cannot receive a higher grade than a B. Multiple errors in the aforementioned regards may take the grade down even further.
C – The student’s analysis demonstrates adequate understanding of Rhetorical Strategies, Modes, and the Toulmin Method, but the analysis may be flawed in some way. If the paper has an abundance of summary with very little analysis, or if the analysis shown is brief and vague, or if the analysis shows elements of circular reasoning, it cannot receive a grade higher than a C. Additionally, if the paper is less than a full page short but greater than half-a-page, or was turned in more than a day late, it cannot receive a grade higher than a C. Lastly, if the paper has multiple examples of the following—is missing a Works Cited page, or has significant formatting or grammatical issues, or does not conform to standard MLA formatting—it cannot receive a grade higher than a C.
D – The paper is entirely summary, is greater than a page too short, or includes many-to-all of the issues mentioned in the previous entries: formatting and grammatical issues, missing a Works Cited page, late, and not conforming to MLA format. If the paper was turned in more than two days after the cut-off point, it cannot receive a higher grade than a D.
F – The paper is less than half the length required, or was not turned in within four days of the cut-off point. This could also be applied to a paper that has evidence of plagiarism or academic dishonesty in general. This could also be applied to a paper that is unrelated to the actual prompt.
