Writing an essay to me is like making a cake.
You have to do certain steps in order for the 'cake' to turn out right but unlike a cake in a sense, the steps as to how you do it in a way do not necissarily matter. To a point. All essays however, need a thesis or an introduction that does one of the following or all: Catches the readers attention, briefly gives an opening on the topic. briefly explains the essays' content or context. These are known as the 'elements' of a story or even an essay. Like a story, it must have a middle, beginning and end but unlike a story, it is not neccisarily needed to know all the key
Another thing that is also important in an essay are themes called, "Persuasive themes."
Persuasive themes are the setting of how the specific “theme” is aimed, to invoke feelings of nationalism, tradition, leader glorification and scapegoat. This is used to persuade strategy,, goals and intent to the audiences.
Plasticity:
This is used to reshape the story. Like the game of telephone, the “phrase” or in this case, the “story” is never exactly told the same each time it is mentioned. This allows one in a sense to reshape the story and how it happened to their viewpoint.
Familial gazes:
These are used to help inspire memories or moments in which we are familiar with and can relate too. The perfume my mother ways is one familial to me. Even if some other person is wearing it, each time I smell it my mother always comes into my mind.
Compare and Contrast:
This is something we deal with everyday of our life. An example is, when we go shopping, or even to pick out which clothes to wear for the day to go shopping. We constantly compare and contrast items against each other. This allows variety for without comparing or contrasting, the world would seem dull and grey. Like some of those old black and white movies.
There are many more then just the two I listed however, these two to me are themost important for they allow me and any one else in general, to get a sense of what the essay is trying to talk about and its aim.
Another critical item in an essay that heavily impacts the readers is 'definitions.'
In this world, to explain anything of it, there is a process which is used through a 'Definition,' which means to define or explain what is being told or discribed in context either verbally or through writing to allow the reader or the listener to understand what is being explained and defined. Without this process, there would be no understanding and in a sense, no form of communications. Definitions are an important aspect of everyday life.
They help explain how things work, why things work and so-on and so-forth. This also requiers at the same time, a good communication skill to construct a understandable translation of the definition. In-depth definitions not only give the meaning of what it.
For without these [and a few dozen more, too tired/sick atm to list them all] an essay would be incomplete and rather hard to understand.
It is very organized. The explanations and examples you gave really got the meaning out. you really put your voice into it. great job.
