Analysis paper on the coexistence of good and evil: “Bless me Ultima” Rudolfo Anaya

March 23, 2024March 23, 2024 Discipline: Literature
  • You will be choosing a theme or a character to analyze,
    1. establish what is important to understand about that theme or character,
    2. break the theme or your focus on the character into its parts or elements,
    3. and analyze how the parts/elements are operating in the text in relation to each other and the thesis.
  • Content: Please make sure to include these seven aspects of composition in your analysis paper:
      1. Thesis: an arguable position. Your thesis statement addresses the larger ‘so what?’ It also provides a preview or road map for your intended audience to help them follow along. Your thesis can be more than one sentence.
      2. Introduction: Your introduction pulls your audience in from their busy lives and gives them a reason to take time to understand your ideas. After hooking your reader, provide a frame of reference that introduces the text you will analyze. Next, your presentation of the topic indicates what topic or theme you will analyze within the text. Then, your statement of purpose connects your audience to the elements that are important within the topic or theme. These elements prepare you audience for the argument you will lay out in your thesis statement along with the preview or road map you will provide.
      3. Paragraphs: Your paragraphs demonstrate the development of your thesis. Each paragraph needs a topic sentence that effectively communicates the controlling idea for each paragraph. To substantiate your controlling idea, you need at least two units of close analysis (i.e., claim, evidence, analysis).
      4. Supporting evidence: Within each unit of close analysis, you will have at least one piece of textual evidence. Using all 3 elements of close analysis (i.e., claim, evidence, analysis) ensures that evidence does not overpower your voice. Closely analyzing textual evidence moves your ideas beyond opinion because they ground your ideas with evidence.
      5. Logic, analysis, and organization: Each paragraph needs to demonstrate that your sentences are well-connected to each other logically and each has a specific purpose for being in that paragraph. Paragraph with strong logic, analysis, and organization use evidence effectively to substantiate your thesis.
      6. Conclusion: Your conclusion prepares your audience for how they can use or apply the new understanding they have gained through reading your paper. In essence, your conclusion responds to, “I have read and understand your point, now what?” Your conclusion restates the main argument in your thesis statement; you need to find a different way to explain it that does not use the same words. You can think of your conclusion in three parts:
        1. this is what I set out to establish,
        2. this is how I did so, and
        3. this is how you can use or apply this new understanding.
        •        Consider how this insight benefits your audience. This is why it is important to have a specific intended audience and a statement of purpose in your introduction.
      1. Mechanics: Please use grammar, spelling, and punctuation that follow commonly accepted conventions so that they do not detract your audience from your logic, analysis, and organization.

  • Because this is a short analysis paper (3-4 pages), you don’t have space to analyze all parts of the text. You will have to narrow your analysis to 3 or 4 controlling ideas, which will produce 3 to 4 body paragraphs. Each controlling idea needs to be narrow enough to establish with two pieces of textual evidence (i.e., direct quotations).

     *Below I have attached an outline (This outline does not have to be used, please use your best judgement with it. The thesis will need to be ajusted as well as the the body paragraphs topic sentences. Also evidence selceted for the outline does not have to be used either if you find better supporting evidence please fill free to use it.)
