#funkyfriday Warm-Up 8/30
I’m going to go ahead and make this easy for you: • EVERYTHING THAT IS TYPED IN GREEN- YOU MUST WRITE DOWN ON YOUR PAPER. THAT GOES FOR THIS WHOLE POWERPOINT. • I REPEAT: EVERYTHING IN GREEN MUST BE WRITTEN DOWN • (This slide is not in green. You do not have to write it down.)
Oratory • Formal public speaking • The best oratory almost always displays the following elements: • It is persuasive, inspiring listeners to take action • Like we talked about with GHSGWT • It is emotionally appealing • Like we talked about with OludahEquiano • It addresses the needs and concerns of its audience • Like we talked about with GHSGWT (appropriate style for the audience) • It involves the use of colorful or rhythmic language • Like we talked about with OludahEquiano (sensory detail) and poetry (alliteration/consonance to drive rhythm)
While you are watching the video • Identify at least one instance of EACH of the following: • Ashton uses persuasion, inspiring his audience to take action • Ashton appeals to his audience’s emotions • Ashton addressed the needs and concerns of his audience • Ashton uses colorful or rhythmic language • TO BE CLEAR: YOU MUST WRITE THE ANSWERS DOWN
Religious beliefs • Predestination • Believed that God chose from birth who would reach salvation and who would be damned • Believed that everything that happened to them was chosen by God • Believed that if they worked hard and kept God’s law, God would reward them • Fire and brimstone • These are commonly used as symbols of God’s wrath • Puritans believe in the Old Testament, wrathful God
Writing Style • Oratory • Yay! You already wrote this definition down! See? It’s all connected! Formal public speaking • Example that we will look at: sermon • A speech given from a pulpit in a house of worship • In colonial America’s religious atmosphere, the sermon flourished as a popular literary form • Puritan Plain style • The Puritan’s writing style reflect the plain style of their lives- spare, simple, and straight forward • Characterized by short words, direct statements, and references to ordinary, everyday objects • Music and drama were sinful • Poetry was only used for useful or religious ideas • Poetry appealing to senses or emotions was viewed as dangerous
