EWRT1A-62: essay 3 first draft

The first draft of essay 3 is due Tuesday. I expect these to be rougher than previous first drafts, but get as complete as you can. The more you have, the more there is to comment on. Here are some ideas to keep in mind:

• Focus on analysis, not summary. 
• Analysis means to take apart, to look for patterns. So you should be connecting examples from different places in the texts. If you are discussing a text only in the order it is presented, then you are probably not analyzing.
• The analysis leads to insight. The question is, how does your insight add
  to understanding the novel and the other text? Your goal is to understand the texts better, not to come to some general insight about how the world works.
• Don’t just analyze texts separately; show connections.
• Your thesis should unify both texts.
• Remember to choose your structure wisely: point by point or subject by subject.
• Review the list on page 30 of our reader. The suggestions there are very good.
