Hello!

When you include a counterclaim in your argumentative research essay, your works becomes more credible.
An argumentative essay simply outlines your point-of-view on a topic. You can explain why you believe your argument, but a counterclaim is necessary in securing your position. Counterclaims allow you to respond and dispute opposing opinions. Without a counterclaim, your readers will not be able to understand your viewpoint thoroughly. You must explain your position on the topic by proving that your stance is the better option. If you do not have a counterclaim, you are simply stating an opinion, but you are not arguing against an opposite viewpoint.

I hope this helps you! Have a great day!

The Narrator from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Black Cat" is being charged with the murder of his wife and will face a criminal trial.
o-na [289]

The narrator from Edgar Allan Poe's "The Black Cat", by deciding to plea "not guilty due to insanity", is doing something many people charged with murder do: blaming their own acts on a certain "demonic" mindset, which can be caused by evil spirits or even drugs (legal or illegal). The narrator has a history of alcohol abuse, which, according to his own testimony throughout the short story, led him to cut one of his cat's eyes out of its socket. He'd also been violent to his wife, not only verbally, and said he'd committed violent acts precisely because of their malignant essence. This man is no good. Therefore, there's no point in validating his plea of "not guilty due to insanity" and he should indeed be charged with murder. After all, he killed his wife with the strike of an axe upon her head, just because she wanted to stop him from killing their cat. As the narrator admits, he was then possessed by unstoppable anger, and that's not a reason for claiming to have done anything due to insanity at all.

Jet001 [13]
The common theme these poems share is celebrations of self and nature support themes that explore the connectedness of all things. Both these poems are written by Walt Whitman, in which he adresses to the reader directly, and brings clear messages of how everything is connected through nature, citing its huge role in people's lives.
