english essay writing 15
Assignment: Write a short essay (750 words) that defends a thesis you developed through a close critical reading/analysis of one (or two) works listed on the syllabus. The “critical response†essay relies on textual support from the primary text (secondary sources are not required) – not plot summary to develop the student’s argument. Do not confuse “critical analysis†with “plot summaryâ€; the goal is to develop, sustain, and advance a thesis based on a critique of the primary text.
