**ATTENTION 1st/2nd AP/1102: LONG WKEND HW RDG/ANNOTATIONS DUE COMPLETED TUES. 1/16**

1st/2nd AP LANG/ENG 1102

HW DUE MON. 1/27:  

1) Over this LONG WEEKEND, given to you in class FRI. 1/12, RE-read the excerpt/"Prologue" from Victor Herman's autobiographical memoir Coming Out of the Ice (JOURNAL #13)  

2) As you re-read, LOCATE and ANNOTATE (on the actual paper/post-its, etc.--y'all know what to do) ONLY TERMS AND LANGUAGE DEVICES THAT USE LOGOS (logical) APPEAL; in other words, what strategies does the author/narrator [Herman] use to reveal logical structure/order/etc. to his readers in his memoir's "Prologue"?  

**SOME TERMS/DEVICES TO CONSIDER as you annotate:  

• examples of "____ DICTION" (*be specific here!!)
• SYNTAX (sentence order)/STRUCTURE
• PUNCTUATION CHOICE (*VERY NOTICEABLE IN THIS EXCERPT!!!)
• **PARALLEL STRUCTURE/juxtaposition of IDEAS/WORDS
• **SPECIFIC repetition types (end of sentence/beginning/phrases/etc.)
• POINT OF VIEW (POV)/TENSE of narrative
• metaphorical comparisons that would *make logical sense* to readers   

3) BUT WAIT; there's MORE! To broaden your understanding of the background behind Herman's harrowing experience in the USSR (**AND** to be ready for your IN-CLASS J#13 WRITTEN RESPONSE TO THIS EXCERPT next week), read the info on the following three quick links (*these three are also linked on the Classroom*):
