ASSIGNMENT 1: Study the texts below, identify stereotypes and dwell on the nonverbal representation. Note that gestures (especially emblems) have a verbal complex known to all members of the given culture; other nonverbal signs are usually rendered in language expressions. But we know that most often all nonverbal signs are not accompanied by word complex in oral speech, but they are easily understood by members of the same culture. The first has been done for you.

Text 1: A well-dressed gentleman was waiting. He introduced himself as Sterling Bitch or something of that order. Clyde looked at his business card. Bintz. Sterling Bintz. Attorney-at-Law. From Philadelphia, PA.

Mr. Bintz was about forty years old, short and thin, intense, with the smugness that Yankees can’t help but exude when they venture into decaying towns of the Deep South.

How could anyone live like this? Their smirks seemed to ask.

Clyde disliked him immediately, but he also wanted to return to his vodka, so he offered Sterling a cocktail. Sure, why not?

Text 4: She [African American who came to the police department to bring a proof that her boss was killed] opened the purse then and drew out the clip of paper she'd found. He [the policeman] merely looked at it? Not reaching for it? Forcing her to rise partly out of her chair to hand it to him. Racist, she thought, and felt better.

Text 5: A long rambling conversation produces the bare bones of their story: a flick on the side of the neck (Russian shorthand for drinking), some fractured references to families who did not want them, to accidents or a vague something that cost them their jobs. Then the final catastrophe — …that they became faceless as well as homeless, viewed as an annoyance by officials or as "garbage," in the words of one cop, Andrei.
