Comment on Daniel's paper

Daniel Miller Definition Paper 

 

Your paper is very impressive and professionally-looking. You state your point and you prove it. I agree with most of your paper. We cannot transfer our thoughts and beliefs exactly as they are, our communication abilities have severe limits. We use rhetoric to show our point as good as we are able to, and to convince others to believe in what we believe. It is pretty natural for us, humans. I don't know if I can agree with you that using rhetorics usually means manipulation, at least as long, as the commonly known meaning of that word is highly negative. Usually, there is nothing really bad with the persuasion.

 

I also liked your theory that repetitive complaining about the economy might be a self-fulfilling prophecy. People hear that so often, they start believing in it, and cut spending and other involvment in the market, and thus they make our economy's position worse.

 

Gramma, ortography, and puctuation were also good. I almost didn't notice any mistakes. I have only one real complaint. You throw sometimes into your paper some pretty specific terms, like ineffable or koans, without explaining them better. You could fix that, and write just several more words about those ideas. Beside this, your paper was really interesting and impressive.
