General Notes on Writing the Reader Response Close Reading:
The paper should begin with a closely argued thesis. Then include a general orientation to the passage to be analyzed, explaining the text of origin (author, historical context and spirit of an era). It is important to know the authors background and/or social context in which he/she formed a particular worldview. The thesis appears at the bottom of the introductory paragraph.
The thesis depends on the analysis already conducted, and the point is to relate all of the relevant details to that thesis. This means that some details may be omitted in the paper because they do not support or concern the thesis being argued. Too much detail about unimportant features will draw attention from your thesis. Moreover, you must be careful that you do not ignore details that contradict your thesis; if you find these, this means that you need to reevaluate your thesis and/or provide in-depth explanation via counter arguments and/or counter examples.
Note that the order of the evidence presented should not follow the order of the passage being discussed. Rather, the order of the evidence depends on how it relates to your central argument. Do not let the passage walk you through your argument; instead, re-organize the passage to suit your discussion of it. The order of the original essay argument must not influence the order in which you frame your argumentative response.
The body of the paper presents relevant textual evidence in a meaningful order, and it includes direct quotes and scholarly academic support. Avoid being overly mechanical in the organization of your paper. Try to bring the observations together in a logical way and organize the paragraphs around issues of enduring meaning in today’s complex world.
Make sure you do not read so closely that you transform a clear though complex passage into a bundle of confusion
