Point of View: Analyzing Documents Claudia Gordon Sohnleitner/Gila Ridge HS/csohnleitner@yumaed.org

Read documents carefully Why was THIS person producing THIS piece of information at THIS time and in THIS manner??? We will be using the SOAPStone method to evaluate documents

Who is the speaker?? What is the source?? THEORETICAL IDEAS – are they political or economic or social or intellectual? SOCIAL STATUS including caste or class or wealth or education HOME- country of origin-ethnic identity OCCUPATION GENDER WORLDVIEW – religious or cultural or philosophical AGE REAL KNOWLEDGE- what are the limits of what they know or could know?

What is the occasion? What is the time and the place? What context was the primary source created in? What is the geographic & historic intersection at which this source was produced?

What is the Intended Audience?? Who are the readers to whom this document is directed? The audience may be one person ~ a small group ~ a large group It may be directed to a certain person or a certain people

Purpose?? What is the reason behind the text? Why was it written? What goal did the writer have in mind?

What is the subject?? What is the general topic… content … or idea in the text? You should be able to summarize the text in a few words

Finally … what is the TONE ? What is the attitude of the speaker? Tone words  Sad or wistful Insensitive Fanatical or obsessed Cruel or ruthless Amused or tolerant Negative or defensive More tone words  Annoyed or disgusted Worried or in a panic Excited or guilty or ashamed
