The politics of adaptation: Steven Spielberg's appropriation of the color purple
This essay explores potential political and social implications of filmic adaptations using Spielberg's adaptation of Alice Walker's The Color Purple as a case study. Besides enjoying a strong popular response at the box office, suggesting powerful resonance with viewers, the film “The Color Purple” touched on two issues salient in American society: sexism and racism.

Ideology as rhetorical constraint: The anarchist agitation of “red Emma” Goldman
This case study of the rhetoric of Emma Goldman explores the relationship between ideology and rhetorical strategies.

The “positive woman's” journey: A mythic analysis of the rhetoric of stop ERA
By drawing its structural pattern from the romantic quest mythoi and developing characterizations of supporters and opponents which reflect elements of Jung's mother archetype, the rhetorical vision of STOP ERA becomes especially potent and appealing to many American women. The impact of such mythical archetypes is both subtle and pervasive
Jimmy carter and playboy: A sociolinguistic perspective on style

The materials consisted of forty-six nonsense monosyllables, two examples for each possible, final, single consonant in English. Using the technique developed by Berko, the researcher discovered that children do significantly better inflecting some stems requiring a particular allomorph than…
