Analysis is a way of looking under the surface of a text to see how it is put together. The purpose of analyzing a text is to better understand the author’s intention, the text’s purpose, and the techniques the author(s) use to convey those intentions and purpose. Often, the ultimate goal of analyzing a text is to support your own evaluation of it. In order to evaluate a text effectively, you need to understand how it is put together.

The term “text” can refer to any type of communication–fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama, movies, songs, television shows, advertisements, messages on social media, and so on. In this course, however, we will analyze written, non-fiction texts because that is one of the most common types of assignments found in other college classes.

We will focus on how to integrate quotes, paraphrases, and summaries into your own writing, how to effectively connect in-text citations with entries on your Works Cited page, and how to build a correct Works Cited page.

Assignment
Read “Who Killed the Knapp Family?” by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn and answer the question raised in the title. Who (or what) do Kristof and WuDunn think killed the Knapp family? Why do they think so? Review their article carefully and describe the causes of the tragedy they describe. Do you think the causes they describe are plausible and supported with adequate evidence?
