Your essay should present a clear, insightful central idea, should have a clear sense of order and logic, should be well developed with specific details to support your assertions, and should use effective language that is free of grammar, spelling, and punctuation errors.
Avoid plot summaries and provide quotations from the text to support your ideas. Also, be sure to spend ample time writing and revising your essay.
Ensure you reviewed the previous page on Character Analysis. Feel free to refer back to this information and the sample paper as you need to for this assignment.
Your Assignment:
Write a 1500-2000 word essay responding to one of the following prompt:
Compose a character analysis that compares and contrasts characters from two or more works you have studied this term.
Note: For the final paper, at least one work must be a work you have not written about in a unit essay assignment before.
Avoid summary in your essays; all writing should be directly tied to proving your argument and furthering your analysis of the works. Be sure to spend significant time directly comparing the works that you choose to write about.
This is a Research Essay, and you must include at least four secondary scholarly sources (not Wikipedia or other study guide sites). Do not simply repeat what someone else has concluded; instead, offer your own commentary or insight on what you have learned from your outside sources. You must also properly quote or paraphrase, including citations in MLA form.
Selected works are “The necklace” by Guy De Maupassant and Tartuffe by moliere
