CRITICAL ANALYSIS ENGLISH 1301 FINAL EXAM Purpose: To evaluate somebody’s work (a book, an essay, a movie, a painting …) in order to increase the readers’ understanding of it. A critical analysis is subjective writing because it expresses the writer’s opinion or evaluation of a text. Analysis means to break down and study the parts. Writing a critical paper requires two steps: (1) critical reading and (2) critical writing. Critical reading: 1. Identify the author’s thesis and purpose. 2. Analyze the structure of the passage by identifying all main ideas. 3. Consult a dictionary to understand material that is unfamiliar to you. 4. Make an outline of the work or write a description of it. 5. Write a summary of the work. 6. Determine the purpose which may be · To inform with factual material · To persuade with appeal to reason or emotions · To entertain (to affect people’s emotions) 7. Evaluate the means by which the author has accomplished his purpose. · If the purpose is to inform, has the material been presented clearly, accurately, with order and coherence? · If the purpose is to persuade, look for evidence, logical reasoning, and contrary evidence. · If the purpose is to entertain, determine how emotions are affected: does it make you laugh, cry, angry? Why did it affect you? Consider the following questions: 1. How is the material organized? 2. Who is the intended audience? 3. What are the writer’s assumptions about the audience? 4. What kind of language and imagery (relating to the five senses) does the author use? OUTLINE FOR CRITICAL ANALYSIS I. Background information to help your readers understand the nature of the work. A. Information about the work 1. Title 2. Author 3. Publication date and source (where was it published?) 4. From where was this taken? 5. Expertise of author 6. Statement of topic and purpose B. Thesis statement (from the essay itself) indicating writer’s main reaction to the work. Note: Be sure to use quotes and a citation (paragraph from which it is taken). C. Does the author have a strong argument in favor of capital punishment? Note: This does not mean you agree with it, but has he attacked his opponents’ views vigorously? II. Summary of the work (2-3 sentence overview). This cannot be quoted but must be in your own words. Note: You also need a citation. Give only the paragraph number from which it was taken. III. Main points of argument A. What does the author suggest but not state directly? .
