This is a task of writing 4 separate analyses on 4 separate authors. EACH essay is 3 pages long. Must include personal opinions and critical thinking, as well as quotations and citations to the text that convey why you believe it represents a certain theme. Can be completed in any order of authors. There are links to the text below, please carefully read and construct your analysis off of them. No outside citations are allowed other than the text. Feel free to conduct outside research to become better educated on the subject in order to write the best version of your paper. Gradesaver, sparknotes are helpful but do not depend entirely on them for your reading of the text, I can tell. No plagiarism allowed.
