Expand one of your existing Discussion Board responses into a formal academic essay; it should include deeper analysis, more examples and discussion, and probably outside sources to further develop the argument
Original Discussion Board Prompt Questions
What type of narrator does Link employ in this short story? How does it shape the readers interpretation of the story? Use evidence from the short story to make your argument. If the narrator POV were to change, what would you choose and why? Explain and summarize how the story would be different based upon your new POV.
Original Discussion Board Response:
Kelly Links Monster
The narrator is a friend to the main characters in the story. He is narrating the story as an observer. In this case, the tale is told from a third-person point of view. A third-person narrator is one who is observing events and giving a narration based on their observations of other characters. For example, the narrator portrays a picture of how the characters were camping by stating, There would be three boys to a tent, and only the boy in the middle would stay dry (Link 187). In this case, he is using the third-person point of view to narrate the events in the story. This standpoint is where both the narrator and the reader know something in the storyline that characters are not aware of in the story. Both the nature of the narrator and the point of view used to influence how a reader interprets the tale.
Point of view is a way of manipulating readers in a story. Through the third person point of view in the story, a reader can get a vivid picture of the events in the story. However, the standpoint is unreliable since it can cast doubts in readers. In Link’s story, the narrator makes those reading it to be doubtful of the events being narrated. Although he is a witty, funny character, this casts doubts on a reader’s mind. A perfect example is where he says, someone in Bungalow 4 had seen a monster in the woods (Link 187). Here, he insinuates that he is not sure of activities in the story. I prefer the first-person point of view that would have been used in narrating the story. It would have been more convincing and appealing to the reader. If this standpoint had been used, the narration would have been more persuasive. It assures readers that the narrator is sure of what they are saying since they are part of events and scenes in the story.

Journal 4: Essay 1 Working Thesis and Lines of Argument (LOA’s)
Now that you have read and we have discussed “Cat On A Hot Tin Roof” in full, you need to develop a working analytical thesis and two lines of support you will use to support the (arguable) claim of that thesis. For this assignment, you need to introduce your working thesis — a concise, single sentence that makes a non-obvious and arguable claim — and identifies (quickly) the two ways you will prove your thesis – those are called lines of support (LoS).
The form of your thesis should be something similar the this template:
As seen in terms of ______A_________ and ______B_______, “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” reveals _____C______. The A/B blanks are your specific lines of support (you’ll likely be drawing from the items you noticed using the 6 analytical moves, and possibly the drama elements I introduced). The C blank in the template is your arguable claim.
Once you have introduced your thesis, defend why you think the thesis is non-obvious and arguable. Remember the test for arguability.
After defending your thesis, explain both lines of support, making sure you allude to the specific details from the text that you will use, and how you will tie these to the thesis (i.e. an idea of your warrants — these are the logical explanations that explain how the specific support proves your thesis claim). LoS’s are things like repetition (exs: the cat imagery repeated, or what both Brick and Big Daddy say, symbols like the crutch or liquor, etc). You’ll provide the details in the body paragraphs – in the thesis, provide a short identifier (ex: repetition, symbols, etc).
This assignment is designed to make sure you are on the right track for Essay 1.
Be specific/detailed. MLA format/citations/Works Cited required, as is proper grammar and strong polish.
*This paper would have to be cited correctly and writing in philosophy style.
*Base off the book Mere Christianity
Your paper should be divided into two parts. In the first part (which should be 2-3 pages), you will provide a summary of the book’s contents. To do this well, you will have to not only present Lewis’ views accurately and clearly but also make editorial decisions about which parts to discuss: you can’t mention everything, so focus on the most important elements. In the second part of your paper (which should be 3-4 pages) you will offer your own critical reflections on the book, appealing to concepts, issues, and arguments we have discussed throughout the semester to inform your discussion. This portion of your paper should be focused in the sense that you should discuss only two or three issues from the book. Limiting your coverage in this way will enable you to discuss the topics you select with a good deal of depth. While you have a great deal of latitude in the way you develop this second section of your paper, the following approaches may be helpful:
1. Find a place in which Lewis and one of the authors we have considered argue for opposite conclusions and adjudicate the debate.
2. Identify an argument that we have seen in the semester and show how a portion of Lewis’ discussion either serves to support or undermine the argument in question.
3. Identify an argument in Mere Christianity and show how one of the readings we have considered either serves to support or undermine the argument in question.
4. Identify a theme that appears in both Mere Christianity and the course and explain how material from both has broadened or provided nuance for your understanding of the issue.
5. Identify a theme that appears in Mere Christianity that can help broaden or provide nuance for one of the issues that we have discussed in the course (and explain how it can do so).
Format: double-spaced, standard 12-point font, upload as a .pdf
Please remember to cite all sources as you make use of them (including Lewis).
I’ve updated the “Citing Sources for Intro to Philosophy” document that I’ve been attaching to the paper assignments to more specifically address how to list Mere Christianity on your Works Cited page. Essentially, everyone will need a Works Cited page (in addition to their in-text citations) with an entry that lists Mere Christianity. And, on that Works Cited entry, you need to let me know all the specific bibliographic information about the version of Mere Christianity you are using.
