Literary Analysis
In this essay you should combine your practice responding and analyzing short stories with support derived from research. So far, in the discussion boards, we have practiced primarily formal analysis. Now I want you to practice "joining the conversation." In this essay you will write a literary analysis that incorporates the ideas of others. The trick is to accurately present ideas and interpretations gathered from your research while adding to the conversation by presenting
your own
ideas and analysis.
You will be evaluated, in part, on how well you use external sources. I want to see that you can quote, paraphrase and summarize without plagiarizing. Remember, any unique idea must be credited, even if you put it in your own words.
Choose one of the approaches explained in the "Approaches to Literary Analysis" located at the bottom of this document. Each approach will require research, and that research should provide the context in which you present your own ideas and support your thesis. Be sure to properly document your research. Review the links in the "Writing about Literature" tab as these will help guide you.
While I am asking you to conduct outside research, do not lose sight of the primary text to which you are responding---the story! Your research should support
your

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

4. How Can I Learn More?
Check your library for:
• Various handbooks of literary terms
•Numerous introductions to literary criticism and
theory, widely available.
Example: A Handbook to Literature,
Harmon/Holman
5. How is it “Literary”?
Usually, a literary analysis will involve a discussion of a
text as writing, thus the term literary, which means
“having to do with letters.”
This will involve the use of certain concepts that are very
specifically associated with literature.
6. What is an Analysis?
An analysis of a literary work may discuss:
How the various components of an individual work
relate to each other.
How two separate literary works deal with similar
concepts or forms.
How concepts and forms in literary works relate to larger
aesthetic, political, social, economic, or religious
contexts.
7. How is Literary Analysis
An Argument?
Writing an Argument:
• When writing a literary analysis, you will focus
on specific attribute(s) of the text(s).
• When discussing these attributes, you will want
to make sure that you are making a specific,
arguable point (thesis) about these attributes.
• You will defend this point with reasons and
evidence drawn from the text.
8. Thesis Statements
Which is the best Thesis Statement?
Moby-Dick is about the problem of evil.
Moby-Dick is boring and pointless.
Moby-Dick is about a big, white whale.
The use of “whiteness” in Moby-Dick illustrates the
uncertainty of the meaning of life that Ishmael expresses
throughout the novel.
9. How to Support
A Thesis Statement
Evidence and Support:
• Include examples from the text:
Direct quotations
Summaries of scenes
Paraphrases
• Cite other critics’ opinions
• Discuss the text’s historical and social context
• Always remember to read carefully and highlight useful
passages and quotes.
10. What is a
Secondary Source?
Secondary Sources:
• A book or article that discusses the text you are discussing.
• A book or article that discusses a theory related to the argument you
are making.
• A book or article that discusses the social and historical context of
the text you are discussing.
For example: In discussing Chaucer’s Pardoner’s Tale,
Lee Patterson argues that: “…
11. How do I Find
Secondary Sources?
You might consult:
• Academic Databases
• EX: The MLA International Bibliography
• The Dictionary of Literary Biography
• Discipline-specific sources:
EX: America: History and Life for American Literature
• Other search engines
• A bibliography that is part of your text
• Your instructor
12. Integrating
Secondary Source
• When you use secondary sources, be sure to show how
they relate to your thesis.
• Don’t overuse any one secondary source, or for that
matter, secondary sources in general
• Remember that this is your paper, your argument—the
secondary sources are just helping you out.
• Never, never, never plagiarize. See the OWL handout
on plagiarism for more information.
13. Recap: Literary Analysis
When writing a literary analysis:
Be familiar with literary terms.
Analyze specific items.
Make an a argument.
Make appropriate use of secondary sources.
Consult instructors and tutors for help when needed.

15. The End
WRITING A LITERARY ANALYSIS
BRIAN YOTHERS
Brought to you in cooperation with the Purdue Online Writing Lab
This screen is designed to provide a brief overview of the entire presentation. The most significant point to be emphasized here is that literary analysis is an argument about a literary work, and that whatever recommendations are made throughout the presentation stem from the need to write persuasively about a clear, debatable thesis.
Click mouse for each paragraph.
These concepts can be described in as much detail or as cursorily as time permits. It can be helpful to give an explanation of some of the terms, but also to direct students to glossaries of literary terms that can help them learn about these concepts for themselves.
Students (and teachers) can find information on the Purdue OWL for researching literature.
However, it’s important to emphasize the importance of using sources other than/in addition to Internet sources to students.
Image from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com/A-Handbook-Literature-12th-Edition/dp/0205024017/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1403707393&sr=8-1&keywords=A+Handbook+to+Literature+Harmon%2FHolman)
This might be a good moment at which to asked students what it means to look at a novel, poem, play, essay, etc. as writing—what kinds of emphases that does and does not imply. I particularly stress the fact that words, figures of speech, and patterns of organization matter when we are talking and writing about literature.
Here the facilitator may wish to give examples of how these categories can play out in essays on specific literary works discussed in class and/or ask students to suggest examples.
Here the facilitator may wish to define precisely what a thesis statement is give some examples of thesis statements for literary essays. The comparison to law can be useful in order to demonstrate to students that when they write a literary analysis they are advocating a specific understanding of the text in relation to other understandings of the text, some of which their argument may coincide with, and some of which their argument may directly oppose.
The fourth option, while not scintillating, is the one thesis statement on the list that could be developed and supported throughout an essay. A good strategy here is to ask students to talk about why each of the first three options is problematic. (Examples: Option 1 is too broad and abstract, Option 2 is appropriate if they are asked to recommend or not recommend a book to those who haven’t read it but doesn’t offer an interpretation of the book, Option 3 is excessively obvious)
The Purdue OWL hosts a number of resources of building strong thesis statements and developing arguments.
Many students need to have the importance of direct quotations emphasized strongly. It may be useful here as well to direct students to the handout on Summarizing, Paraphrasing, and Quoting on OWL. The facilitator might also ask students to suggest ways of finding out about historical and social context in preparation for the next two slides.
Many students are simply not familiar with the term “secondary sources,” so it’s worthwhile to take the time to define the concept.
The facilitator may wish to ask students what resources they have found helpful in the past. For help in searching the library, students can refer to the “Research and Citation” and “Internet Literacy” resources on the Purdue OWL.
The OWL handout on plagiarism can be a useful supplement for this slide. See http://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/589/01/.
This screen gives the facilitator a chance to sum up the content of the presentation.
