Details see below
Subject: Behind the Scenes or, Thirty Years a Slave, and Four Years in the White House
Background: Upon its publication in 1868, Keckleys text was quite controversial. In fact, the texts content was so controversial that it was recalled by its publisher in response to tremendous public outcry. As this text created such a negative response, it is fair to say that this warrants the questionWhy did Keckley actually write this text? What was her motivation? For example, Keckley tells her reader that she wrote this text as a means to defend Mrs. Lincolns honor. Do you believe that Keckley wrote this text as a means to mend Mary Todd Lincolns torn reputation, or do you think she wrote this autobiography for another reason altogether?
Approach?Please avoid background material; it is not necessary, and it takes up valuable paper space reserved for establishing a strong and valid defense of your position. This paper does not request or welcome outside research. I am interested in your own close reading of the text; not critical interpretations. RememberIf you can find details on the internet, I can find the same details on the internet! More interestingly, I may have even published it!
Organization?Because this is a thesis-driven paper, you are expected to outline / make your claim(s) in the first paragraph of the essay and use the rest of the paper to defend your position(s). You may even use a version of this sentence: Elizabeth Keckley wrote her autobiography, Behind the Scenes or, Thirty Years a Slave, and Four Years in the White House in order to_____________ because_____________. Please utilize your paragraphs to defend your position by explaining your reasoning and providing direct quotes from the text for evidence. Be sure to explain how your chosen quotes work as evidence. Try to avoid dropped quotes from the text in your essay. A quote is useless in defending your position unless you thoroughly explain its significance to the position you state in your thesis. Perform a selective close-reading of the text; introduce and present your reader with the most important evidence and explain its significance to your position. Additionally, because this is an analytical essay, please write from the third-person perspective and avoid using I at all costs.
