摘要	Narrative analysis examines how media tell stories — how events are selected, ordered, and given meaning through plot, character, and perspective. Drawing on narrative theory and the methodological syntheses of scholars like Catherine Riessman, it treats storytelling as a fundamental way humans organize experience and persuade, and it interprets the structure, content, and performance of media narratives.	Rhetorical analysis, or rhetorical criticism, is the systematic interpretation of how symbolic messages — speeches, texts, images, campaigns — work to persuade audiences and create meaning. Rooted in classical rhetoric and codified for contemporary practice by scholars like Sonja Foss, it examines the strategies a message uses, the situation it responds to, and the effects it invites, producing an argued interpretation rather than a count.
