blog week 7A

Subject specific rhetorical tools are very important for the writing process because they help to specify things within the story, making the writing more comprehendable for the audience. They also help to make the writing more interesting by adding details, and painting an image with the words in which they use.
Compare and Contrast is one of the rhetorical tools, which is used when there is a basis of comparison. When two or more objects, or things, are able to be compared. This helps us to understand the similiarites and differences between them.
Visual Gazes are another rhetorical tool which can be used. It helps the audience visualize what you are trying to say. The few in which we talked about in class include the following: familial gaze which is used to remind us of close friends and family. National gaze, which isn't neccessarly so private, or so near to the heart. Consumer gaze, which is used to get consumers to buy products. For example, commercials and ads. Lastly, Travel gaze, which is used to get you to Travel. Like Disneyland photos, making children all over the world wanting to go meet all their favorite cartoon characters in real life.
