Contextual Analysis
Assignment: Write a contextual analysis where you synthesize multiple texts or ideas, seeing
each in the context of the others. Contextual frameworks might include the following:
? historical: What are the historical events and facts surrounding sports, and how does this
affect how sports is viewed? Students can consider when the argument was written or
composed, or they can consider the time period in which it takes place, or other factors
concerning the time period of a text such as historical objects or artifacts important to the
argument.
? biographical: What occurred in the person’s life? What were the person’s beliefs, values,
experiences, and so on, and how do these affect the ways that one understands the person’s
purpose of the argument? Consider the person to be athletes, coaches, trainers, etc.
? social: This context is similar to the historical framework because it asks that you look at the
social influences of the time. For instance, what were the social values, events, discourses,
and so on, and how are these social contexts reflected in sports?
? cultural: What kinds of culturally specific values, beliefs, and patterns can be observed in
sports? How have sports been shaped by cultural influences such as religion, nationality,
family traditions, and so forth?
