Online assignment #8: Davis myth essay

Read J. Francis Davis’s essay “The Power of Images: Creating the Myths of Our Time.” Then write a brief response to the essay using specific examples from your experience.

Address the following specific questions: Is your experience of advertising consistent with what Davis suggests? Have you noted, or do you now perceive, any of the myths Davis presented? Can you identify, in one or more of your selected advertisements, any of the myths Davis presents? Again, when possible, use specific examples from your experience of advertising to support your answers (not just “yes,” but “yes, in a bus ad campaign for Diet Coke that suggests being overweight is undesirable”), and be sure to specifically tell me what ad you are referring to in your response to the last question (example: “I see hints of the myth ‘Corporations care about you’ in an ad for Volkswagen’s Rabbit, which suggests all of the safety features are created for the protection of the viewer’s family”). You may address other aspects of the Davis ad, as you see fit.

The final writing should be a minimum of 250 words long and submitted to dropbox no later than Sunday, Nov. 6, @ 11:59 pm.
