Monday, April 18, 2011. Blog 11: Rhetoric in Movement. As a verb: we do rhetoric. Rather than (just) finding ourselves in a rhetoric. Pg 13, para.1).”.

Pathos: Blog 10: The Economy of Emotions
http://pathosdmj.blogspot.com/2011/04/blog-10-economy-of-emotions.html
Wednesday, April 13, 2011. Blog 10: The Economy of Emotions. I like how Ahmed takes an approach to emotions that is different from our other readings. While she does talk about the transfer of emotions from body to body, she explains that these transfers are “economic” and don’t reside in the subject or object. Pg123 para.1).” I thought this concept was interesting because it sort of ties into Aristotle’s thought about hate. It seems that Aristotle and Ahmed are on the same page. I think learning about e...

Pathos: Final Project Rough Draft
http://pathosdmj.blogspot.com/2011/04/final-project-rough-draft.html
Thursday, April 28, 2011. Final Project Rough Draft. Please Don’t Stop the Music. Have you ever met someone who didn’t like music? Of course we all have our favorite types, but music, overall, has a universal appeal. Even if someone doesn’t like a specific genre or song, they can still be affected by the music. I, for instance, am not a fan of Miley Cyrus’s music. But as soon as I hear Party in the U.S.A. I find my foot and body bopping to the music. Why does music have this intense effect on us? Walker ...

Sunday, April 24, 2011. Bitzer on the Rhetorical Situation. Lloyd Bitzer defines rhetoric and explains what exactly the rhetorical situation consists of in his article, The Rhetorical Situation. He says that rhetoric is a context of persons, events, objects, and relations with an exigence which strongly invites an utterance. This means to me that rhetoric is everywhere in everything because there is a situation in everything everywhere that could gather a response. April 30, 2011 at 5:41 PM. I agree with...

Pathos Spring '11: Nussbaum and Emotions
http://tmitch15.blogspot.com/2011/04/nussbaum-and-emotions.html
Sunday, April 3, 2011. In the Nussbaum article we read for class, she makes certain claims that I believe are true, but like everything in life, there's an exception. Nussbaum claims,. Which means that a person cannot separate their emotions from their rational. The two are connected. She illustrates this claim through an example of anger. If one is mad it is based upon the belief that someone else has wronged them in some way. It is not an uncommon event that I wake up in the morning in a pissy mood.

Sunday, January 30, 2011. Blog 1: Aristotle's Views on Emotions. Do I even fit the criteria? Other emotions that Aristotle describes as separate are anger and enmity/ hate. While many of us usually combine these two emotions together, Aristotle shows us just how different they can be. The people we respect would not do bad things toward us, the fact is that no one is perfect and everyone is subject to receiving and giving these negative emotions. Wednesday, January 26, 2011.
