Pozdnyshev's Argument Analysis
Two separate arguments take place: the old vs the present, and then the present vs the new. The old is denounced with statements such as “those times have passed” (Tolstoy & Katz 137) and “What barbarous views of women and marriage!” (Tolstoy & Katz 139). Then Pozdnyshev jumps into the aftermath of this first argument and shakes them all up with his statement about how love is always temporary: “this preference for one [person] may last for years…more often for months, or perhaps for weeks, days, or hours” (Tolstoy & Katz 140). Pozdnyshev is portrayed as winning this argument, as he is given the last

    Bettina Hoeppner's Argument Analysis

    The author employs sufficient sources and data to support her claim. Miller cites from various and professional organizations to strengthen her argument. For example, Miller utilizes a study done by Bettina Hoeppner from Harvard to illustrate the discrepancy of alcohol consumption between men and women. Miller often refers to NIAAA for her argument and uses the data from NIAAA as a baseline for excess alcohol consumption. Miller also seems to favor one specific intervention program, the BASICS program, that helps to prevent and decrease dangerous drinking activities among teens and young adults.…

    Donald L. Niewyk's Argumentative Analysis

    Donald L. Niewyk’s fifth and sixth chapters both deal more with outside perspectives and outside reactions than it does with those who were persecuted. The fifth chapter, “Bystander Reactions,” offers four different arguments as to why bystanders acted they way they did during the Holocaust. The sixth chapter, “Possibilities of Rescue,” discusses three different viewpoints on what foreign governments could have done to prevent the Holocaust. These two chapters conclude Niewyk’s book The Holocaust and wrap up the final sequence of events surrounding the Holocaust and the camps.…

    Butow's Argument Analysis

    Butow supports his argument by stating that the militarists’ “attitudes” eradicated any thought for surrender. Providing primary sources from Marquis Kido, Japanese governmental and military officials, Butow offers evidence that provides historians with a new perspective. The new perspective that Butow focuses on examines the terms of surrender offered to the Japanese at the Potsdam Conference. Through his investigation of the Potsdam terms, the author argues that Japan would have surrendered much faster if the United States had retracted the idea of unconditional surrender. Based on Butow’s arguments future historians would develop the author’s initial findings through their research and viewpoints on the terms of unconditional surrender.…

    Peter Lewiston's Argument Analysis

    Bohlander and Snell’s definition of sexual harassment “refers to unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature” (Bohlander & Snell, 2013, p. 112). Thus, Peter Lewiston did not make any direct form of harassment based on the books definition of such; he did fall under the “Equal Employment Opportunity Commission” (EEOC) forms of recognized sexual harassment. Lewinson created a “hostile environment” which the EEOC recognizes, “can occur when unwelcome sexual conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with job performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment” (Bohlander & Snell, 2013, p. 112). As a result Lewiston created a sexually hostile environment for Gilbury based on the constant approaches, and unwanted or requested gifts; even though Gilbury had reputedly stopped his advanced in a proper manner.…

    Stephen Feldman's Argument Analysis

    I believe Stephen Feldman’s argument is very accurate. I think his arguments are eye opening, especially his arguments about religious holidays. Around Thanksgiving time there are a lot of Christmas decorations. For individuals in outgroups it would be difficult living in a world of cultural imperialism where everyone assumes you practice the same religion as them. I also agree with the author’s main argument, the separation of church and state does not equally protect all American’s religious freedoms. I realized this when the author mentioned the case of Thornton v. Caldor Inc. the main argument in the case was to allow employees to not work on their religious Sabbath, which ever day that might be. The Supreme Court approved the Christian…

    Mr. Carnegie's Argument Analysis

    Carnegie has inspired women and men to use their funds to their communities. Although he advised other wealthy to use their money to benefit the communities and help in the preservation of the political system and America economy. I believe Mr. Carnegie’s argument is persuasive and is still relevant today. The wealthy, as well as small business owners, are the job creators in our society today. Their vision and leadership help to support the lower class in earning a decent living while allowing them to realize their own potential. The lower class today has more opportunities that were not available to them generations ago. While government is there to provide a safety net for those less fortunate, it is the wealthy and job creators that…

    Love In Ivan Turgenev's Fathers And Children

    “Still I say that a man who stakes his whole life on a woman’s love and, when that one card gets beaten, turns sour and sinks to the point where he’s incapable of doing anything at all, then that person is no longer a man, not even a male of the species.” (Turgenev 27). Bazarov makes his view of love very clear in this scene and also seems to foreshadow his demise. He says that someone who gives up everything after failing in the game of love, is weak. This would be an obvious notion from Bazarov since a nihilist has no respect for anyone or anything. Ironically, Bazarov clearly explains exactly what ends up happening to him in the story. He is the card that is beaten by Anna Sergeevna when she does not tell him whether or not she shares the same feelings as him, when he expresses his love for her. He tries to hide his sadness and frustration by engaging in a romantic manner with Fenichka Nikolayevna, the servant who becomes Nikolai Petrovich Kirsanov’s wife at the end. When this fails as well, Bazarov knows he can no longer hide his feelings and need to love and appears to be a changed…

    Sabinsky's Argumentative Analysis

    The technical aspects of losing weight such as regularly going to the gym and eating a strict diet is a tedious process that may be a motivator to NOT lose weight. We’ve already established that many people struggling with their weight do not feel happy in their bodies, but the act of losing that weight may never even happen. According to Sabinsky’s study on men, he discovered men “perceive too many barriers towards weight reduction” (Sabinsky). Sabinsky identifies that participants’ perceptions of necessary dietary change implied a potential loss of masculinity (Sabinsky). The sense of masculinity trumps the need to enhance their bodies and men would risk body weight and appearance for their dignity. This can explain why it’s noticable that…

    Susan Bordo's Argument Analysis

    In recent discussions of Susan Bordos reading about women’s pressures in society, one controversial issue discusses how women have expectations in society that they think they have to follow. These expectations consist of being able to cook and work in the kitchen, look beautiful, and dress certain ways to gain attention. In contrast, other arguments are; men do not have to worry about their weight, they should be strong and maintain a fit body, and not needed to cook or help out in the kitchen. Proponents of this position, emphasize that women in this world have to follow what society portrays of them, otherwise by not doing it, they will not receive the same attention as they would if they listened to society. Overall, the issue presented…

    Wormald's Argument Analysis

    Wormald consistently and effectively uses evidence from both contemporary and modern sources to support her arguments throughout the article. Her evidence is largely used critically, with evaluation of source material appearing in either the main body of the text or in the footnotes. Consequently, this evaluation of evidence provides for a stronger and more convincing argument by demonstrating the reliability of her sources. Wormald is also able to acknowledge flaws in her evidence, but successfully justifies the use of flawed evidence by arguing for its importance, and demonstrating how it can still support her arguments, such as the vengeful writings of Anthony Welton. It is unclear, however, exactly how far the evidence may be extrapolated to the wider British population, as much of the evidence is taken from upper class and educated individuals in personal contact with the king.…

    Tim Wise's Argument Analysis

    Tim Wise had a different childhood than most, he was raised by the phrase "Race matters." As a pre-schooler he was sent to a mostly black school and learned to respect black authority figures. This resulted in him being more racially aware while growing up. His main argument was that racial inequality still exists today. As he went through college, he became very involved in a group that advocated for better rights for people in Africa. Several weeks later, he was asked what he had done to address racism in his own city, New Orleans. He then realized he hadn't done anything in his own town. He began working for the next twenty years to advocate for racial equality still exists. The argument is made that white people are blind to their advantages and privileges. According to Wise, white privileges is built into our system and has helped us without us knowing. White people in the US have had many more privileges compared to people of color, it's just built into the foundation of our…

    Piaget And Vygotsky's Argumentative Analysis

    Sigmund Freud said it best when he said, “Every child at play behaves like a creative writer, in that he creates a world of his own, or, rather, rearranges the things of his world in a new way” (Pearson). Playtime is an activity that is constantly being eliminated or greatly reduced, in favor of more structured educational learning activities starting in kindergarten. Many educational facilities have reduced recess or play breaks in the daily, which can lead to the children becoming overwhelmed or act out, because they have not been able to express their energy. Many parents are simply too busy to be able to fully immerse themselves into playing with their children. Parents today are busier than ever and children are enrolled in a multitude of activities they are shuffled to. Often times, parents will believe that they need to provide a wide arrangement of enrichment activities to build up every skill and aptitude so that their child might become high achievers in both high-school and later on in college, and life…
