This assignment calls for you to write a critical essay in response to the reading provided. The essay needs to be between 750 and 1000 words and should reflect careful thought, writing, and attention to form. Going over 1000 word limit is ok.
The analysis essay is a form of expository prose, a kind of writing in which you argue several points. The topic of your analysis is your critical response to the ideas in one of the articles.
Read the chosen article several times, noting the thesis and the sub points in the reading. You can also note aspects of style that affect the strengths and weaknesses in the article, and how well the article develops its main and sub points. You may need to do additional research about each of the authors before you begin formulating your analysis.
