For this assignment, consider the rhetorical situation surrounding the film, Persepolis. Define the context, catalyst, purpose, and audience. Consider what we have discussed in approaching a text as a writer would (Mike Bunn's article) and our rhetorical analyses of print advertisements. There is much to consider in the analysis of a film: the visuals (animation), score, point of view--everything that the film's creators have given their audience to persuade them of their purpose. Keep in mind that you have viewed almost the entire film, enough to gather the rhetorical situation. To define the context, do a bit of research. Come prepared to finish the film on Thursday after fall break and discuss its rhetorical components.

To refresh your memory of the rhetorical triangle/situation:

Catalyst: what prompted the text's author(s) to create the text in the first place?

Purpose: what is the text trying to say--its main point or thesis? Audience: who has the text been created for? Context: what surrounds the text--genre, author(s), date of publication, and historical, social, cultural, or political (among other) issues that may surround the text.

Your assignment should be at least one, full page in length, typed in Times New Roman 12 point font, with one inch margins all around. Your assignment must be uploaded to D2L as a word document before class, on Thursday, Oct. 13th, as the dropbox will close as soon as class begins. You may want to print out a copy of your assignment to refer to in class for discussion.
