Annotation

I don’t know how to handle this English question and need guidance.

Annotation Guidelines for Jonathan Swift’s “Modest Proposal”

and the text needed is attached bellow

Due Date: September 3, 2020

When annotating a passage for analysis, determine the main purpose of the passage.

Look primarily to these main components to help you:

PART I: (5 points)

Type the answers to the following questions 🙁 Length of each answer should be two to three sentences)

1. Who is the audience for the essay?
2. What is the larger context/cultural context for the text?
3. What is the author’s main argument?
4. What is the author’s purpose in writing this essay?

PART II: (10 points) Zero Points for assignments completed using a pencil

Mark up the following directly on the hard copy of the texts. This assignment should be completed using a pen. You may use different color ink or same color. You must label the text in the margin. Or you could use the word review feature and complete it. (Turn in the annotated assignment as an attachment in Canvas by due date)

1. Type of claim: cause, fact, value, policy (use any one specific color pen; for example, blue, to label the type of claim in the right margin).

1. Type of support/Evidence: fact, opinion, reasoned judgment, inference, example (use a different color pen, for example, green, to label the type of evidence in the left margin).

1. Label the rhetorical Strategies writer uses-description, definition, metaphor, symbol, allusion, analogy, etc.

1. Appeals: Ethos, Logos, Pathos

1. Summarize every new main claim you come across below the paragraph that contains a main claim.
