Man of La Mancha Essay Please remember to proofread all work as you will be graded on both CONTENT (ideas and development) and MECHANICS (i.e. proper essay structure, grammar, spelling, punctuation, proper MLA citation format, and organization). Please see attached rubric for essay evaluation Pattern: The Point-by-Point Method (Integrated) For each argument about CHARACTER A and CHARACTER B compare and or contrast side by side. You will need to have one quotation or specific example for each character. In the next paragraph, move to the next argument, and repeat the pattern. Sample body paragraphs: TOPIC SENTENCE (for both A and B) First discuss CHARACTER A: context, support in the form of a quote/example, significance Then discuss CHARACTER B: context, support in the form of a quote/example, significance Show the similarities and or differences between the two, linking back to argument and essentially, the thesis Transition sentence linking to next argument Repeat the pattern for each paragraph; however, in your last paragraph, use a concluding sentence, not a transition. – Compare according to a single organized idea. – Use specific and relevant examples for support. – Give equal treatment to both characters that you are discussing. – Always lead with the same work or character to create coherence and unity. – Use transitional words or phrases to help the reader understand the similarities and differences in your subject. – Conclude your paper by restating your thesis, summarizing the main points, and give the reader the final ‘so what’ of the major similarities and/fktor differences that you discussed.
