This assignment will showcase your ability to recognize and examine argument structure. Please be sure to follow all of the assignment guidelines, which your instructor will give to you in class or listed below.In this week’s assignment, we are going to take a look at a couple of arguments related to an immensely controversial idea in our society, the idea of same-sex marriage. At the end of chapter six you will find two different opinions, Justice Margaret Marshall’s majority opinion on Goodridge v. Department of Public Health Matthew Spalding’s “A Defining Moment for Marriage and Self-Government. While many of you may have strong opinions on one side or the other of this debate, this week I am going to ask you to set your own opinions aside, and see if we can begin to identify the different parts of argument. Directions Specifically, read through these two articles and choose one of them. Then, for your chosen article, identify the various parts of the argument as they are described in chapter six of your text. Explain how the various parts work together to prove an overall claim. Again, you are not asked in this assignment to evaluate their argument or to give your opinion, but to describe that argument and explain how those different parts work together. PLEASE NOTE: This assignment is not asking for a summary of the articles or your perspective on this issue. Instead, in this assignment and many others, you will be doing an analysis of a particular article using the ideas and criteria specified by the assignment.
