Instructions
As you contemplate any of the prompt questions, please remember that you need to develop
one precise answer to work as your thesis statement (your main point), which can be any of the
following kinds of arguments: comparison, contrast, definition, evaluation, causal, process, classification,
resemblance, and ethical. Begin your essay with a motivator, and articulate your thesis statement by the
end of your introduction. In the body of the essay you need to show this argument through a few sub
points. The different kinds of claims mentioned above can also be useful as patterns or methods of
organization in the body of the essay so long as each sub point is a clearly connected aspect of the main
point. Each sub point must also be clearly stated in the topic sentence of each central paragraph. Further,
for each sub point you must provide evidence to show what you say. Explicate quotations from the
primary sources to show your sub points. Develop your discussion logically and adequately. The body of
the essay should show a gradual progression of thought. Remember that you have to develop your
thought without losing focus. In addition, you must use three scholarly secondary sources to develop
your discussion. Do not quote a secondary source to mention a fact of the primary source. And these
sources must be given credit through thorough documentation. Quote or paraphrase the primary and
secondary sources relevantly and accurately. Always keep in mind that you need to preserve unity and
coherence in every essay. Be focused. Don’t ramble. Write complete and coherent sentences. I
encourage you to use quotations, but don’t quote or paraphrase without a reason. All your sub points
(sub claims) should be connected with your main point. Every quotation you cite should be relevant to
your main point, and hence it should be in support of the sub point for which you are using it. Avoid
using clichés and words that are vague. Because your aim is to be clear and concise, you have to choose
your words well. Be economic with your words but not miserly! An essay is not a plot summary, so you
must show your own ability to think. When you write, keep in mind that you are sharpening your ability
to analyze. The body of the essay should show a gradual progression of thought. Do not pass off
someone else's words or ideas as your own. Provide in-text citation and also provide a “Works Cited”
page at the end of your essay. Follow the latest MLA guidelines for format and citation of sources. Also,
your essay must be printed in 12-point font size, and the lines must be double
spaced. The length of the essay is between 6 to 7 pages.
Introduction: In any kind of essay the motivator introduces the topic. Be sure to mention the
author’s name and the title of the text in the motivator because you are writing an expository essay. Try
to begin your motivator in an interesting way so that your reader is motivated into reading your essay.
The first part of the motivator is the broadest part of your essay because you introduce the broad subject first. Then you narrow down the scope so that you can lead your reader to your limited subject.
After this you are ready to state your main point (main claim) about your limited subject. This point is
the thesis statement (a precise answer to any of the prompt questions mentioned above). This point you
wish to make as an answer to the question you choose from above is your thesis statement. It is your
argument. This argument is a precise point about a limited subject matter. Hence it should not be a
“fact” that is in your text. Nor should it be a claim mentioned by a character or narrator. You arrive at
your claim (argument) by way of the author’s suggestions. You can also use a secondary source as the
foundation of your claim. But you must acknowledge this source through in-text citation. Any wellarticulated argument that grows out of a thorough reading of the text(s) and that is not a distortion of
the “facts” is a valid thesis statement. Articulate it by the end of the introduction. Body of essay: All the paragraphs here are called central paragraphs. As the introduction is the
“claim” part of your essay, so the body is the “support” part of the essay. Here you explain your main
point through sub points and supporting evidence (specific support). In short, you show what you tell in
the thesis statement. The number of your paragraphs here will depend on the number of sub points you
provide to back up your main point. Each of the paragraphs in the body of the essay should explain only
one sub point and provide specific support –examples, where you make use of the “facts” of the text(s)–
for that sub point. Make use of three secondary sources, which need not be limited to literary criticism.
Consider using other disciplines: history, psychology, philosophy, politics, etc. Use your secondary
sources relevantly and acknowledge them through in-text citation. As each sub point is a part of the
main point, it should be clearly connected with the main point. Begin each of these paragraphs with a
topic sentence, and then provide the specific support. A topic sentence sums up a sub point. In other
words, it provides the point of the paragraph. Develop your sub points logically. Don’t jump from one
point to another (or even one sentence to another). Make your sub points flow logically from one to
another. That is, don’t move from one point to another without having adequately developed that point,
and try for a smooth transition. Conclusion: In your conclusion you can throw in a clincher. If that doesn’t come, don’t worry.
You can summarize your main point and sub points, but don’t repeat the exact words of your
introduction. Try to say something that may develop from your main point but don’t say something
unconnected or contradictory to what you have established in your essay.
