Read Lanham, chapter three. Look back through the past three chapters of Lanham and scour for any questions you may have about his reflections on style. I'm talking about things you really didn't understand. Please begin your post with these questions.
Let's look at some political prose. Let's look at Bill Clinton's inauguration speech. Clinton is renowned as a great orator. How does he use various sentence types? What persuasive techniques does he use? Comment on the effectiveness of his use of repetition. Comment on his vocabulary. Use Lanham as specifically as possible.
