In my rhetorical analysis of U2’s “Sunday, Bloody Sunday”, I do have a thesis. My thesis is: The song “Sunday, Bloody Sunday”, by U2, is a prime example of lyrics which are trying to convey the scary truths of war in order to find a solution to stop the bloodshed. After reading my thesis, I feel that I should include the word “rhetoric” in my thesis, simply for the purpose of emphasis for my essay. The argument is identified in the thesis; however, I’m not sure that it is crystal clear. I feel that by adding the word rhetoric, or rhetorical, to my thesis would make my thesis clear to readers.
I do use specific examples of rhetoric in my essay. “Wish I could close my eyes and make it go away”, is one example I explain with rhetorical analysis. “How long? How long must we sing this song? How long? How long?” is also an example, which I describe, is also uses figurative language to emphasize the question in the song.
Other examples that could be analyzed:
· “It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall”
· “And it's true we are immune when fact is fiction and TV reality”
· “We eat and drink while tomorrow they die”
Examples where I can be more specific:
· “How long, how long must we sing this song? How long? How long?”- Here I can use the history to explain, and give the reader more understanding of the argument.
