Answer:

Adherence to received tradition was so important to all the people in Janie's world because this gives them a sense of belonging and also keeps them away from being resented by their peers.

The community deals withh people who are 'different' by isolating them or spreading rumors about them or slandering them.

Explanation:

'Thier Eyes Were Watching God' is a novel written by Zora Neale Hurston. The novel is centered on the protagonist, Janie Crawford and her quest of self-discovery.

In Janie's world, much adherence is given to the received tradition as this allowed people to define themselves as a part of a community or a group. The received tradition also gives them a sense of belonging to a group or community and also keeps them away from being resented by their peers.

In Janie's society, Blacks did not have traditions of their own but the traditions sanctioned by the white people. In the novel, when Joe and Janie arrived at Eatonville, it had no traditions as the town was just sprouting, but it's traditions were established on white traditions, to which Janie did not adhered.

The community, in conditions when those who do not adhere to received traditions or who are 'different', deal with them by isolating them or slandering them. When Janie did not adhere to the received tradition of how a widowed wife of mayor should behave, she was turned against by townspeople.

Explore the role rhetoric plays in James Green's "Equal Pay
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Green’s argument uses effective rhetoric by using these components of rhetoric to create an argument that appeals to the audience.  

Green establishes ethos by stating that the Equal pay bill is being considered by the Utah legislature. This infers that he has information on the legislature, and/or could be a part of it, firming his credibility.

Then, Green uses logos by showing you how the turn of events will happen if the Equal pay bill is accepted and enforced: “if businesses are forced to pay women the same as male earnings, that means they will have to reduce the pay for the men they employ". "If that happens, then men will have an even more difficult time earning enough to support their families”.

Finally, Green wraps it up by using pathos: “We should encourage our legislators to drop the whole notion. Let the marketplace determine what free-market forces should prevail. It is not the role of the government to dictate to businesses what they should pay anyway, either as a Minimum Wage or Equal pay for men and women.
