SUMMARY:Declaring Independence: The Language That Challenged an Empire
DESCRIPTION:More than a historical milestone\, the Declaration of Independence is a masterful use of language.  This talk examines the Declaration of Independence as a bold piece of writing designed to persuade\, provoke\, and endure.  Blending rhetorical analysis with a full reading of the text\, it brings the document to life as a spoken argument rather than a static artifact\, and approaches the Declaration through the lens ofvoice\, rhythm\, and the enduring power of words.\nMichael Langlois is a performer\, lecturer\, and storyteller with decades of experience on stage and off. He has directed across New England\, and worked for over a decade with New London\, Connecticut's Flock Theatre serving as an Associate Artist\, where he directed\, acted\, and taught classes.\nFor more information\, please visit www.grotonpl.org.
