Feedback from Passage Analysis

  • Good analysis,

    • focus on Austen’s language use: why did Austen use this word, and what effect did that vocab have on the thesis?

    • eg. thesis: Miss Bingley’s insecerity, the use of word “dear”: to irony? idk

  • not good thesis

    • kind of vague

  • not good mechanics

    • no pronound use: use character’s name

    • Do not mention page number; mention chapter name instead

      eg. on page 27 (x), from the end of chapter 8 (o)
