Critical Essays on the SCARLET LETTER are due on 11/23.
Analysis Essay:
In 2-3 papers students will need to analysis some aspect of The Scarlet Letter and connected it to a theme. Things that can be explored include symbolism, tone, diction, characters and events. I expect students to use their didactical journals for focus on examples. I also expect all students to choose something small to concentrate on. I would rather you spend three pages examining one paragraph in relation to a theme, than to try and examine something like Pearl’s role as Savior and Chillingworth’s role as the devil (unless you view these roles from looking at one paragraph or one page). This would be too large. You couldn’t examine it in enough detail in three pages. Remember I’m looking for precise thesis statements and evidence that is analyzed.
GRADE: Essay grade with 100 points.
Due Date: Monday November 15th.
Note: If you are traveling you better turn it in on Monday.
