The ripper narrative

It was a good narrative told in a clear and interesting way. It was laid out but not explicitly in a way that covers the criteria for a discourse community. Very clearly stated why and how they joined this discourse community and what it means to them.

Ana narrative

wow. It was a really personal narrative that had real life consequences. Its shows how discourse communities that don’t have national influence can still affect a persons life in a negative way.

1. For the ripper narrative the writers motivations for going their d.c. is that they were fascinated by the unknown and an interest in cold cases. The the Ana narrative the writers motivation for joining the group is their strive for perfection and wanting to be their best self.
2. For the ripper narrative the writer expressed that joining this d.c. had a lot of influence on his future career path. For the Ana narrative the writer expressed that joining this group had effected their life negatively to the point where they were on the brink of death
3. The Ana paper is just as good as the ripper paper because it can show how influential a d.c. can be in daily life and how much control it can have over one person.
4. I think that the document for assignment 2 will be different than assignment 1 because 2 will be more emotional than logical used whereas assignment 1 it was more logical than emotional. Assignment 2 will be more personal and allow for it to be more opinionated.
