Post 4: Rhetoric context

     Rhetoric context by definition refers to any writing situation that you are analyzing the purpose, audience, and focus of the piece. In Carroll's Essay Backpacks vs. Briefcases she talks about ""can't judge a book by its cover" but, in fact, we do it all the time." in this quote she isn't just talking about judging people, she is using it as a real-life example. Carroll is depicting that we should look deeper into literature and not just take it at face value. We need to break it down to find the purpose the author has in writing, the audience they are trying to reach, and the main focus. In my Doc 2, my purpose is to convince you why I would love to become a nurse and to try to convince my audience (classmates) why it is such a great profession.
