I think that you might have to focus on two particular elements in your analysis. The first would be the argument, itself. What is used to support the thesis being advocated? What facts in evidence is submitted? How cogent and coherent is the overall argument? It might require you to sketch out the basic argument and the subpoints used to defend or support it. I think that the next level you will have to undergo would be to analyze how the argument is written and how it is presented? Addressing the tone of the article, as well as the word choice and how it is presented in terms of persuasion will be involved here. I would like to suggest another source that might help with your study here. Danica McKellar has written some excellent work on the gender bias in mathematics. I would examine her arguments and study her tone and word choice in order to increase your background knowledge of the field.
The British king thought he was the divine ruler appointed by God, for one, so he thought he was all powerful. The settlers they were taxing were originally British, most of them at least, and so they thought it was their natural right to tax their own people. They would have taxed <em>everything</em> because it was a way to make money, and they would have done so simply because they could. They thought that they had the <em>right</em> to tax everything because, as <em />I said before, they thought they were a divine ruler appointed by God, and therefore, they thought that that gave them the <em>right</em> to tax everything.
