A LITERARY ANALYSIS IS?
A literary analysis the practice or process or closely examining sections of literary writing to uncover how they relate to or affect the work as a whole.

TO MAKE A LITERARY ANALYSIS,
1. Your essay must cover the topic you are writing about.
2. Your essay must have a central idea (stated in your thesis) that
governs its development.
3. Your essay must be organized so that every part contributes
something to the reader’s understanding of the central idea.
