It establishes may analytical points, which explain the main reason Shakespeare’s sister was and is not heard of often.

...order of ideas in a paper. Many students eliminate outlining in the writing process as an unnecessary step. However, writing an essay without an outline can create disjointed results. An outline provides a roadmap so that the essay can move smoothly from point A to point B to point C. Without an outline, the essay could easily become disorganized, e.g., A, B, A, C, B. This can confuse readers because the points of the essay are not arranged in correct sequence. Use the following suggestions to create an effective outline. Creating Correct Formatting The following information will help you format an outline correctly: Include at least two elements under each of the sections in the outline. If you have only one element, however, you can add additional information to create at least two points. Create parallel wording at the beginning of each section of the outline. If the first word begins with a noun, the first words in all other elements in that section must also begin with nouns. If the first word is a verb, the other elements must begin with verbs, etc. Include a period, and space or tab after each letter or number. Be consistent on using spaces or tabs throughout. (See the sample outline below.) Use double spacing in the outline for ease in reading or use single spacing throughout and double space between each of the major elements (I, II, II). Capitalize the first word after each number or letter in the outline. Also capitalize proper nouns,...

J. “The Color of Memory: Reading Race with Ralph Ellison.” Political Theory 36.5 (2008): 683-707. Print. Summary: In this article, Booth investigates which multiple aspects enumerate to one ‘cultural identity’. Color, memory, and identity together belong to the struggle over racial justice in the U.S., a battle in part to recognize the past, of which color is the visible reminder and to fashion an American identity that does not seek to render it invisible. Ralph Ellison's writings on memory and race, and particularly his defining work the Invisible Man map these issues and ways of approaching them.

...Essay # 2 “Based off of my already conceptualized knowledge of the word, I would have to say that a feminist is a person who strongly supports female rights.” This is a quote from my introduction paragraph of the first essay we wrote for this class. Having been in this class and read the works written by feminist authors, I have a better understanding of what a feminist actually is. I also have a better understanding of my identification with feminism. Feminism is an ongoing collection of movements and ideologies that advocate for the betterment of women and a feminist is someone who supports this idea. However, my answer still remains the same as it did; I do not identify as a feminist. It would be an insult to feminist leaders for me to call myself one. I support feminist ideas and feel as though women have been oppressed and still are oppressed, but I am not an active supporter, therefore I would not call myself a feminist. I feel as though a feminist is someone who is active in their support for the movement, i.e. advocating for women by either teaching, writing, protesting, or doing things of that nature to improve the treatment of women. There is a major difference in saying that you support feminism and actually doing something to show that support. To further explain my understanding of feminism, I want to uncover the different layers of oppression that women face. While in the 1900’s the goal of feminism was for women to receive equal treatment to men, feminism is...

...you will utilize the academic programs to further explore your interests, intended major, or field of study. “Look, Mommy, the sun is playing peekaboo with the clouds,” I told my mother, squeezing her hand and squinting at the temperamental sky. It was my first metaphor, although I was unaware of it at the time; I was three years old. Even before I could read, I harbored a natural affinity for the English language, picking up new words easily and using them in unexpected ways. I would string them together like beads on a necklace, carefully selecting and rearranging them for the most ear-pleasing sentence. For me, words were more than a way to communicate - they were a form of art. As I delved into the written word I began to recognize writing as a powerful tool for expression. I turned to poetry and short stories to capture childhood moments, expanding my vocabulary and becoming skilled at transferring raw emotions and ideas onto paper. My parents encouraged me to make frequent trips to the library, and I often staggered home beneath the weight of a pile of novels. When I entered high school as a published author and poet, my writing continued to mature. Although I still marveled at the versatility of language, I now wielded my pen with a more defined sense of purpose. I understood that words could be used for more than the aesthetic appeal that got me through my English essays. They could be used to educate, to inform, and to spread awareness. By junior year...

...your final response essay assignment, please respond to the papal encyclical Rerum Novarum. This text helps us understand the role of the Catholic Church in establishing the notion of social justice as we understand it today. For this essay, you will return to responding primarily on the ideas of the text, but, of course, your response may still be informed by your analysis of the rhetorical strategies used by Pope Leo XIII. In your response, you might respond to one of the following questions: 1. According to Pope Leo XIII, how can the State promote social justice? What are some duties that it has to the people? Do you agree with these? 2. What is the unique role the Catholic Church plays, according to Pope Leo XIII, in promoting social justice? Do you agree with that role? 3. Why does Pope Leo XIII support private property rights? How can the pursuit of private property support the goals of social justice? 4. How important is the family unit in ensuring a just society according to Pope Leo XII? What should the State do to protect the family unit? Do you agree? 5. What are some elements that are essential to insuring a just contract between the workers and the employers, according to Pope Leo XIII? Do you agree? There are no “right” or “wrong” responses—but be sure that your response is honest, informed, clear, and well-supported (see the original Response Rubric for more information on these terms). In other words, your essay will not be graded...

...other contemporary African American male writer. In spite of Reed’s ongoing conviction, as he and other black male artists have been misrepresented and virtually ignored, the press, scholars, students, journalist, fellow writers, and other assorted groups have studied his work. Born February 22, 1938, Reed has produced, since the Publication of The Free-Lance Pallbearers, five novels, four books of poetry, numerous reviews and critical articles, editor to five issues of major small multicultural press literary magazine, and collected two books of essays. To this day, Reed is considered to be a major literary leader of third world press, and continues to been a very affluent and busy writer. Throughout his wide-ranging works, it becomes apparent that Reed incorporates the impact of Afro Americans on the culture of the United States in the corpus of American letters. His tone and style are sometimes of satire and parody, but his intentions are deadly stern, as evidenced by his numerous essays advancing his major contribution—in the art of neo-hoodism. Recently, critics have inadequately labeled Reed’s fiction, and have deemed his collection of works as less interesting than his earlier, more notorious writings. To the naïve reader, these novels seem more straightforward in their plots and messages, and seem to have a much less tentative technique. However, the ostensive clarity is in fact part of a much more intricate and inventive style than that which can be characterized as...
