In the documentary produced back in 2004 by PBS:  “Frontline – The Persuaders” the producer/host David Rushkoff  asks the question: “Do the words used help the public see the issue more clearly or do they disguise it?” He uses the examples of “Anti-abortion” vs. “Pro Life” and  “Global Warming” vs. “Climate Change”.  In the current crisis that is facing the nation in Washington DC with the storming of the Capitol and the Congress, and the transfer of power in the Executive Branch of government, give at least two examples of how specific things are described differently by groups of people with vastly different  opinions and beliefs.  Explain how the words are used and presented, try to influence the people reading, listening or watching messages created and distributed by those various groups.  DO you think this use of language actually works?  Why? https://www.pbs.org/video/frontline-persuaders/

Choose a broad topic area (food, education, technology, or race/class/identity), and then narrow down the topic in order to describe an experience you have had or a lesson you have learned that relates directly to the topic category you have chosen. The experience you choose to write about should convey a life lesson that you have learned connected to your topic category—something about yourself, about people, or about the world. Your life lesson might even be as specific as something you learned about your family, your friends, or about the city or neighborhood you live in. Whatever the lesson, the important element is that you are writing about a lesson you learned based on life experience.The thesis statement for your narrative essay will be connected to your life lesson. The support can be made up of life experiences—both summary and detailed—as well as information from outside sources related to the topic you’ve chosen. As an example, an essay on the topic of technology might focus specifically on how reliant people are on cell phones. Using personal examples of losing my cell phone in various ways, I might organize my essay around the following thesis: “Each time I have lost my cell phone, I have experienced firsthand the level of technology dependence people in modern society have developed in recent decades.” Ultimately, a narrative essay should do two main things: 1. Involve storytelling; 2. Express or convey some viewpoint (a lesson or message) about the topic category you have chosen.

Choose 1 specific example of humor or satire from Candide and write a 200 word paragraph ( you can use 2 paragraphs if you wish) that analyzes this 1 example of humor or satire..  YOU NEED TO BE SPECIFIC.   In this assignment,  you will show HOW  Voltaire uses language to create the humor or satire in the example you have chosen.  Think about the following questions: Is Voltaire stating  an obvious point, or is he suggesting something indirectly? Is his choice of sentences, structure, and vocabulary detailed and complex, or short and to the point? How is he describing the character or characters involved in this example?   There is not a right or wrong choice for your example.  The purpose of this assignment is to focus on how Voltaire uses languages to create comedy in the story
