You may choose one of the following: Threats, Twitter Threats, Ransom Notes, False Confessions, Wiretap/Undercover Transcripts or Bribery.
Your analysis should involve a full description of the overall pragmatic information of the case. Consider this to be a summary of the overall circumstances, the participants, the criminal charge(s), the linguistic evidence, etc.
Pick one piece of oral or written linguistic evidence, and if it is a long example or there are multiple pieces of linguistic evidence, then focus on one piece of evidence and/or one portion of it for discourse/topic analysis.
Identify the criteria/standard(s) that define the case as the particular type of language crime.
Identify the subsystems of language connected to your analysis and/or an expert’s analysis, types of speech acts, directness/indirectness/ambiguity, the presence (or lack thereof) of the Cooperative Principle, and the presence of “plausible deniability” (if applicable).

In a 300 word MLA or APA format essay discuss the steps in the scientific method: Make sure to include why the scientific method is often used in scientific studies.

case study response should begin with your opinion/solution of/perspective on the issue(s). Assume I already know the details of the case studies (I assure you, I do). Please remember – critical thinking means responses that begin with “I think…”, “I believe…”, “In my opinion…”, etc…. In other words, do not waste time (and points) telling me details from the case study that add no value to your response or to your grade.

It is important to be able to effectively incorporate your sources through direct quotation. For this activity, you will use Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address to practice writing an essay while effectively incorporating quotations to help support your discussion.
For this activity, watch the following video in preparation for your assignment:
Schnall, P. (Director). (2014). Lincoln @ Gettysburg. [Video file] Public Broadcasting Service. https://video-alexanderstreet-com.csuglobal.idm.oclc.org/watch/lincoln-gettysburg
(Links to an external site.)
This video presents historical context for Lincoln at Gettysburg. Scholars will read the address and provide analysis. Pay close attention to the analysis as it will help you to formulate your critical thinking assignment this week.
After watching the video, you will write an essay and address the following points:
What is a “proposition” in the sense that Lincoln uses it?
What does it mean to “consecrate” a place?
What is “hallowed” ground?
The Gettysburg Address is short but very famous. He was the President, he could have spoken longer, and most speakers that day in fact spoke much longer speeches. He wasn’t pressed for time. He had time to prepare. A long speech was expected of him. Why do you think Lincoln kept it so short? (Hint: Where was he speaking and why? How did his “rhetorical situation” influence him?)
Do you see any correlations from Douglass’ work to this work? If so, how do you see this occurring in the text? Be sure to quote from Douglass if you see a correlation.
You must accurately insert a quote in your analysis to provide in-text evidence from the address, and you must comment on the quote to demonstrate you are thinking in a critical manner.

NOTE:
Your paper should be 2-3 pages in length, not counting the title and reference pages, and conform to APA guidelines. Include at least two scholarly references in addition to the course textbook.

Paper Guidelines:
Write a paper of at least 1200 words analyzing language as well as tone in any one of these stories: “My Jockey” by Lucia Berlin (Charters 89) or “Flying” by Alice Miller (download from above). Please note that the Alice Miller who wrote “Flying” is not the psychologist Alice Miller, so I don’t want to see papers that state that flying is a metaphor for abuse. It is not. There is really no reason to do any research on the author for this story. You are welcome to research the allusions in the story, but make sure to cite your sources.
Revisions are not allowed on this paper.
This paper should be at least seven paragraphs long.
The first two paragraphs should be modeled on your Central Idea Paper–the first paragraph should include a synopsis of the story and a statement of the central idea; the second paragraph should be a brief exposition of your central idea statement and an explanation of how the central idea applies to the story.
For the language section of the paper you will write three paragraphs where you will identify and discuss at least three of the devices of language identified in the “Language” chapter of Analyzing Short Stories. Pick three elements from this list– imagery, figures of speech, dialogue, symbolism, diction, irony, and syntax–and write one paragraph on for each language device. Identify each device (you can and should use the definitions provided in Analyzing Short Stories; however, make sure to cite if you do so), provide specific examples, and then write about how the use of each language device gives deeper significance to the meaning of the story. Include textual evidence and also make sure to explain how your analysis of language supports your interpretation (statement of central idea) of the story.
For the tone section of the paper, you will write one paragraph. In this paragraph, you will identify the tone of the story using one adjective respectively (review the tone worksheet for appropriate adjectives). You must then justify briefly why you believe this to be the tone by explaining how at least two elements of fiction (choose from

character, point of view, conflict, setting, and language) contribute to the tone in the story.
The last paragraph will be a conclusion that sums up everything you’ve discussed in the body of your paper.

Foner Chapter 13 summary A House Divided, 1840–1861
This chapter concentrates on the events that led to the Civil War. It opens with a vignette demonstrating the touchiness of southerners about slavery by the 1850s. Mississippi’s Jefferson Davis objected to placing a “liberty cap” atop the statue planned for the U.S. Capitol’s dome because of the association of such caps with ancient Roman slaves’ yearning for freedom. The main reason slavery had assumed a central role in the nation’s debate by the 1850s was territorial expansion—what many Americans called their “manifest destiny” to control the continent, a topic the chapter explores through coverage of Texas independence and annexation, the settlement of Oregon and California, and finally the Mexican War. The war with Mexico, begun in 1846 by President James Polk in an effort to acquire California, was relatively short but controversial because many believed the war would encourage slavery’s expansion. Opponents included Henry David Thoreau and Abraham Lincoln. The ultimate acquisition of California and most of the rest of the present American Southwest (the Mexican Cession) formally occurred with the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, which ended the war. Soon, thousands of Americans and others flocked to California because of the discovery of gold there in early 1848. This gold rush created wealth as well as ethnic conflict. Also, even before the treaty transferred land to the United States, Representative David Wilmot (D-Pennsylvania) proposed banning slavery from territory that might be taken from Mexico. This Wilmot Proviso gave rise to the Free Soil Party, which spread antislavery’s appeal far beyond abolitionists and intensified sectional debate.
The Compromise of 1850 solved the issue of the status of slavery within the Mexican Cession but created new controversy with a stronger Fugitive Slave Act. The Kansas-Nebraska Act (1854) reopened the sectional divide over slavery in the territories by overturning the Missouri Compromise’s prohibition on slavery in what were now Kansas and Nebraska territories. The consequences of the act included political realignment with the collapse of the Whigs, a brief nativist Know-Nothing movement, and the rise in the North of the Republican Party, based on free labor ideology. In addition, a short civil war broke out between free soil and proslavery factions in Kansas. The attempt of the U.S. Supreme Court to settle the slavery controversy resulted in the Dred Scott decision (1857). Chief Justice Roger Taney’s ruling that blacks could not be U.S. citizens and that Congress could not ban slavery from territories pleased most southern whites but angered many northerners. That the Court did not solve the issue is clear when reading this chapter’s “Voices of Freedom,” a selection from one of the debates in the 1858 U.S. Senate race between Stephen Douglas and Abraham Lincoln. Another election, that for president in 1860, took place amid mounting sectional tension due to John Brown’s raid on Harpers Ferry and the division of the Democratic Party over whether to protect slavery in territories. The Republican Lincoln won this highly sectional election, which led to the secession of seven slave states and the formation of the Confederate States of America before his inauguration. The chapter ends with the April 1861 Fort Sumter crisis, which kicked off the Civil War.
