  • Very good analysis

    The author clearly understands the extent to which Britain immersed itself in the War, and some of the implications of this.Perhaps the way in which British society and ideology was permanently changed could also have been considered.

  • Good try, but it's just not enough

    This is a brief summary of the story. It fails to do justice to, or provide any analysis of, the themes that have made \"To Kill A Mockingbird\" a stubborn favourite of class teachers and students alike.

  • A basic template

    This provides a useful at-a-glance synopsis of the story, but is nowhere near evaluatory or analytical enough to get a good grade, especially at 13th grade level.It is not sufficient for school, but can be used a as a very basic template in discussion of "The Hobbit." I think the essay question may have been too vague, because it would be difficult to thoroughly cover all of the raised points in anything less than a thesis

  • A very interesting piece

    a good simplifiction of Lacan's theory and very interesting parallels drawn with the novel, although you have skimmed over the oedpial phase (identification with the father)and the gender implications of patriarchy that it carries. perhaps the latter was not relevant to the novel but if the theory is being mentioned the oedipal/phallic stage is its epicentre.nontheless, this was a very interesting essay, and much appreciated for the simplification of Lacan. Thanks.

  • Very helpful for my essay!

    a comprehensive outline of the key philosophers and their theories. you seem to understand the issues and have included a personal anaylsis.perhaps you could have added more evaluation by including critics such as Julia Kristeva and Germaine Greer.

  • Good effort

    Good, succinct retelling of the story with all the chief and interesting points covered. However, I wonder what your essay question actually was as there is no analysis or evaluation of either the characters or the themes.

  • Brilliant!

    Excellent analysis of one of Shakespeare's most controversial characters. Very good disection - challenges the common view of Shylock as purely cruel and opens up debate regarding his humanity. There is a perfect balance of character analysis and character direction, and good inclusion of temporally contextual info. The only flaw was that I didn't really understand Catalyst Shylock - but perhaps that was just me!

  • Try to analyse

    An accurate recounting of the play, but there is little analysis of the character. Iago is among Shakespeare's most notorious characters due to his complete lack of humanity, his failure to ever win the audience's sympathy, but most fundamentally because he is the epitomy of everything negative in mankind. He succombs willingly to "the green-ey'd monster jealousy" and enjoys ruining everybody else, admitting he doesn't really know why. By the end, he was to impose revenge and misery for the sake of revenge and misery. Hope this is useful to anyone else.
