Title: Response Essay


1
Response Essay
Type 25
2
Definition
  • a response to some work
  • a personal reaction and attitude to the specific
    ideas revealed in a certain work and their
    application of the authors life
  • The expressed arguments always have a very
    subjective character and correspond to the
    authors critical abilities.

3
Structure (1/3)
  • Introduction
  • The thesis statement
  • It is ordinarily made through the application of
    the work to the personal experience of the author
    resulting in a very special perception.

4
Structure (2/3)
  • Body
  • Analyze all the aspects of the work and the
    authors main response to these aspects.
  • It is suggested to concentrate on a few aspects
    to make the essay more substantial and focused.
  • Special techniques should be used to reveal the
    authors responses to the presented work.
  • Onomatopoeia
  • Simile
  • Alliteration
  • Metaphor, etc.

5
Structure (3/3)
  • Conclusion
  • Presents the evidence, which supports the
    authors response to the analyzed work.
  • It must persuade the reader that real aspects of
    the work justify this response.

6
Tips
  • It is necessary to draw strong parallels between
    the analyzed work and personal experience.
  • All the statements must be proved by actual
    evidence presented in the work.  This is required
    to avoid the possibility of the invention of new
    ungrounded views on the analyzed work.
