Summarize and Analyze

For this assignment, you will read your selected work of literature (short story or play), and then carefully summarize and analyze it.

Note the difference between summary (what happens in the work) and analysis (what you think of the work), and be sure to clearly distinguish between summary (which should appear first) and analysis (which should appear second). The assignment should be a minimum of 500 words, although it may be longer if necessary. This assignment constitutes 10% or 100 points of your total course grade.

In order to better summarize and analyze your chosen text, you may find it helpful to keep the four rhetorical elements (author, audience, topic, purpose) in mind when summarizing and analyzing. When necessary, provide additional support (citations) for the types of support used which the audience is supposed to “know.” Be sure to cite the work correctly in-text and on a Work Cited page. Even if you do not use any outside sources for this assignment, you must cite your selected work of literature both through in-text citations (if applicable) and on a Works Cited page.

How does this story address that ideal? How do at least two other texts from this Module’s readings also address that notion even without consciously intending to do so? Compare and contrast what the author’s show about the human condition and how rights, or the lack thereof, are part of the human condition.

Answer ALL of the following in no less than 250 words per question:

1) Knezevic’s “The Classroom” addresses a huge article from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: the indestructibility of rights. How does this story address that ideal? How do at least two other texts from this Module’s readings also address that notion even without consciously intending to do so? Compare and contrast what the author’s show about the human condition and how rights, or the lack thereof, are part of the human condition. Be SPECIFIC with references to the texts to answer this question.

2) In Knezevic’s “The Classroom” a central character leave his homeland. In contrast to that, poet Anna Ahkmatova never left Russia though many other Russian ex-pats tried to convince her to do so. Using the poem “Requiem” and the characters in “The Classroom”, compare and contrast the impacts of staying and leaving one’s country when the situation in one’s country is dangerous. Be SPECIFIC with references to the texts to answer this question.

3) Though Larkin is English and Heaney Irish, both are writing in the same language in the same time period (Heaney slightly later but their writing time overlaps). What features of the poems you read are common to both that would enable you to note specific techniques and/or themes that are specifically late 20th century British? OR conversely, do you think that their styles and themes are so different that they have little in common suggesting that English and Irish poetry are distinct? Again, be SPECIFIC.

Argument
People argue all the time—over what movie to see, what to have for dinner, whom to vote for. People generally have strong opinions, and many don’t hesitate to express them. Your friend doesn’t want to see the same movie you do because he doesn’t like gory horror. Your partner wants to eat at a restaurant that serves healthy food. Your coworker won’t vote for any candidate who doesn’t support universal healthcare.

Your argument essay is an amplified version of those types of arguments you have with family, friends, and coworkers each day. The difference is that you’ll be conducting research and using the information you find to explain a problem and then provide a solution.

The argument essay is 1,600–1,800 words and must incorporate a minimum of four secondary sources.

There’s no graded prewriting assignment for your argument essay.

Assignment Objectives
Use prewriting, drafting, revising, and editing to write a formal, college-level essay.
Distinguish among different patterns of development.
Apply an appropriate pattern of development to a specific purpose and audience.
Write an effective thesis statement.
Develop paragraphs using topic sentences, adequate detail, supporting evidence, and transitions.
Employ responsible research methods to locate appropriate secondary sources.

Quote, paraphrase, and summarize secondary source material correctly and appropriately.
Use APA (American Psychological Association) citation and documentation style to reference secondary source material correctly and appropriately.
Apply the conventions of standard written American English to produce a correct, well-written essay.

Purpose and Audience
The purpose of your essay is to identify, define, and analyze the problem, and then provide a solution to address it. You’ll use the third-person point of view.

Your audience is made up of your fellow Penn Foster classmates. Many will agree with you, while others will disagree. You need to present evidence to support your analysis and solution, and convince your audience through the strength of your argument and the feasibility of your solution, to side with you.

Research Requirement
You’re required to use a minimum of four secondary sources in your essay. Use the Research Writing and Citation and Documentation webinar, Journal Entry 16, and the Argument Essay Research Worksheet to help start your research and organize your essay.
