What is a cultural symbol?
The image above is nothing but a smudge of black on white, and it may mean nothing to millions of people around the world. But chances are good YOU have some thoughts about what this symbol stands for.
Did you also know that the Greek Goddess named Nike was a goddess who personified victory? Her Roman equivalent was Victoria. Here is a slightly older depiction of her than the black smudge above.

What if you could encourage people to believe that they need your product even if they do not? After all, did you know that you needed a cell phone that told you where the nearest coffee shop was before you saw one?
How do people know that they “need” a shirt with an American Eagle logo? You might be tempted to answer that you buy these things because they are convenient, because you simply want them, and because they make your life better. Chances are that you have been influenced by the rhetoric of advertising, though, whether you are aware of it or not.
identify and evaluate cultural symbols, target audiences, shared belief structures, assumptions, and the arguments (rhetoric) used by advertisers to persuade consumers to buy products.

Your task for this assignment is to develop a paper that analyzes the lyrics of a song of your choice as a piece of literature.
The paper should:
Begin with an introductory paragraph that introduces the song (when it was created, by what artist, if it has been popular). This paragraph should end with a thesis that makes a claim about the song’s meaning.
The rest of the paper should use multiple paragraphs to present an explication that provides an overview of the text’s meaning. To do this, you will need to focus on specific features in the poem to help explain what the song’s meaning. (See the Reading & Writing About Poetry (or Song Lyrics) page for help in this regard).
It will be necessary to focus on specific features in the song.note that you may analyze the musical elements in the song, but that your main focus should be on the song’s lyrics since you are practicing the sort of textual analysis that will help you in our future papers. You should also use specific evidence from the song throughout your paper.
Note: Be sure to choose a song that is appropriately complex. A song with a narrative – that is, a song that tells a story may be useful in this regard. Whatever the case, “Baby Shark” is not going to cut it.
