A critical analysis must be written.
Your analysis should form a central argument about “Groff At the Rounds Earth Imagined Corners” e.g., identifying how a leading idea is communicated via textual components, or identifying a theme present, or identifying how the historical circumstances of an artist inspired a text to convey particular meaning.
Your critical analysis should consider the complexity of a text and offer a unique understanding of it.
Each essay must have a clear, specific argument in the intro section that identifies the point you’re making about the text and explains how this helps us to understand the meaning of the text. In order to support this argument, your paper should exemplify with specific details or components from the text that illustrate your ideas.
In making your argument, the paper should clearly show how specific aspects of the text contribute to your understanding of the work as a whole and/or how it illuminates one of the broader issues we discuss in class.
