·         An argument can be defined as a disagreement between ideas of individuals. A conversation can relate to an argument because many conversations can spark an argument if it is a sensitive or irritating subject to the particular individual, and vice versa. Arguments aren’t always uncivilized, they can be very organized and help establish both points of view; an example of this would be a debate.

 

Discussion and Journaling

2. Green quotes Kenneth Burke’s “oft- quote” again because every argument you make is connected to other arguments. The extended metaphor basically states, an assortment of people in a heated argument, which the reader eventually understands the tenor of the argument. The reader soon engages into the argument and after hours they all depart.  It presents the writing by putting the reader into a position with previously stated arguments, already shared, previously stated arguments you want to refute, and new opinions you are going to bring to the conversation. It also might challenge the ending points of the argument.

 

3. The concept of framing is a strategy that can help you orchestrate different and conflicting voices in advancing your argument. The metaphor that underlies it is explains the different viewpoints of each individual. This is important to Greene because it gives direction to the audience. Framing allows the reader a lens or perspective to present their arguments.

 

Appling and Exploring Ideas

2. I believe Greene’s article presents a conversation because he is arguing and establishing the points he wishes to makes to his reader. He frames by opposing the worlds original views about writing and I think he really practices what he preaches.
