What is an analytical essay?
Well, it’s simple.
As the name suggests, the goal of an
analytical essay is to analyse something and explain it in depth to increase understanding.
You can write an analytical essay on different subjects --- analyze a book, play, event, poem, issue, or a piece of art.
However, while tackling such essays don’t simply summarize the topic; instead, you are required to critically examine the details and provide evidence to support your arguments.
When writing about a novel analyze the plot, how the author has portrayed the characters, and the influence it has on the readers.
