If you find the article effective, provide an analytical justification for your
agreement with the authors argument (stronger answers will also suggest what you
see as being the potential limitations of the authors approach). If you dont find
the article particularly strong, offer an analytical appraisal of the limitation
s of the authors argument (stronger answers will offer concessions and refutation
s as necessary to support their claims).
In analyzing the article, you may consider such aspects as overall coherence or
unity, rhetorical appeals (that is, appeals to logos, pathos, and/or ethos), imp
licit assumptions, patterns of argument (e.g. definition, narration, comparison-
contrast, etc.), style, word choice, syntax, and/or any other aspect you see as
being important.
