The type of essay that does not require you to examine and analyze secondary source documents is the narrative essay.
Explanation:
Narrative essays are pieces of writing that tell about a <em>story or experience</em> but they differ from <em>short stories</em> in the sense that they are written in a specific tone and format, whereas short stories are not.
Main characteristics of the narrative essay:
It is written in the first person narrative (autobiographical or on behalf of someone else, or an object or animal)
It always revolves around a motif (a central or main point)
There are characters, incidents and even dialogues - these elements are always present, and all of them revolve around the presented motif
It generally has a five-paragraph format
As it is a narrative of experience or anecdote, it does not need <em>external sources </em>to refer to as in other types of essay writing
Unlike short stories, narrative essays do not leave the reader critically unaware of the ending or with the desire to know more
The narrative of personal experience always teaches the readers a lesson which has been learned throught that experience.
