John Downe Letter to his wife Annotations

[@MadMoneyMark]

this isnt helpful at all... where is the rhetorical analysis? you are talking about his purpose and audience without talking about specific "rhetorical strategies".... cant wait to see your students ap scores

[@ShannonMoore11]

I am sorry you feel that way. I teach my students to use action verbs rather than rhetorical devices in an effort to encourage them to analyze the actions of the author in relation to the purpose and audience instead of just looking at devices... it helps them with the commentary.
