The rhetorical mode I used was a narrative and the genre was to entertain and suspense the reader. Having him or her thinking about who this man is by the time the story is over. I wrote this paper consecutively for days, but when I first wrote it, it was all there out on paper. I just had no idea how to end it so I used some help from family member on what I should end this piece on and my aunt gave me some insightful things to put in there to make the story be a solid piece of writing. I wrote this paper in my basement, at school, at my aunts and in class.Yes I do feel that it was a god approach because different settings can set off different inspirations and aspirations to open your mind and think about different thing. I chose to write about this because I felt like had a l had a good lead on something that could turn into a suspenseful shirt story. Theres’s nothing but “if only” moments for me, this is a made up character and a made up life so really anything is possible. Look back, read it aloud, to family members and even friends to see if they have any constructive criticism to give me.

Question #1: How does this episode fit into the narrative mode?
This particular episode is one of many; and to be honest I was absolutely blown away with the the way Mallman’s outlook on life was connected so well with food. He gave his story on a plate per say. “Show don’t tell” could literally be the title of this episode. His entire demeanor is presented in his food. The way it is created is so rustic and passionate that he has an entire series on his food alone. He is a man that lives with life not for it. Question #2: How does Mallman's story connect to the hiraeth story you are writing in this class? Consider his discussions about home and childhood. Patagonia, Argentina, “the deepest rooted feeling for home”. This was stated by Mallman himself. The reason he said this was because his real home is him, not an area. The meaning of hiraeth is a home that never was or a home you can never return too, but for Mallman his home was really never taken from him because like I said before he lives with life. Meaning that he goes with the flow and never looks back with regret. He's a content man and can only be around certain people for a certain amount of time, a true hippie. When he discovered his passion he was in class and these Australian women played music that just set his mind for life. He thought he would find his path in France learning from the best but when he was cooking he didn't enjoy the atmosphere around it. He is his home and and that’s something that can never be taken. Question #3: What major ideas/themes from this episode connect to ideas/themes from our composition course? Consider Mallmann's argument about composing a good dish, examining his life environments, and being productive. This class has everything to do with this particular series. The man uses nature to create delectable dishes. He loves things burned. Fire is the epitome of his food; without it, his food might as well be as good as burger king. The flames, the pits, the rustic atmosphere are what bring his food to life and so creative. It’s contradictory because when you think of fire, you think of destruction, but in his eyes, he sees potential. I keep referring back to “show don’t tell” only because it fits so well. Chefs create there story with food and we might not see it but they sure as hell do. Choosing a lifestyle and excelling in it is what we all dream of and watching someone achieve that is absolutely inspiring. This class isn't just a writing course, its a class to help you find yourself in a deeper consideration than what you've interpreted. Thats the majority of this episode, yes the food was insanely creative and so was his lifestyle. But the whole point was for him to show his hard work, his risks, his pain, and even his pleasure. I’m not saying go to France, become a mater chef, wear a poncho, and cook your food it a pit of fire, but I am saying find your passion and run with it. |
