Assignment
Consider this assignment an opportunity to further explore and expand a line of analysis that you began with your Critical Reading exercises and then develop that analysis into a more complete and complex argument. You will now write a more expansive rhetorical analysis of your primary text. Your rhetorical analysis can delve into message, audience, rhetor, historical and/or social context or even a combination of these aspects.

Include secondary sources to strengthen your argument as part of the academic discourse community. Show that you can situate and integrate credible sources into your argument so that it exists as part of an ongoing dialogue among multiple parties involving the text being analyzed. Your task is not to only restate what these sources have said, but to engage and provide insightful responses as a member of this academic discourse community.

Your instructor may have some other requirements to include in the focus of your essay.

Basic requirements
Length: 1500-1800 words, typed, double-spaced, and presented in MLA format.

A minimum of four (4) secondary sources, not including the primary text being analyzed, must be used to develop the essay. A works cited with source annotations will be required as part of the final draft.

This is the overall requirement, but this time I just asked for a 2-3 pages first draft, more like an outline.
