Do You Know What You're Doing?

Robert Pfeiffer wrote an article called "Connecting To Texts: Writing A Literary Analysis" about analyzing different pieces of work. The context of the article is explaining to students how to properly analyze different works. The purpose the author wrote this article was to inform students on a certain technique while they are reading. The genre is a formal argument. I say formal because he gives example on how to do it right. the audience is mainly for students but it can also before anyone who reads literature and wanted to analyze the work they were reading. The style is formal and the arrangement is he puts a paragraph then bullets. The paragraph explains and the bullets give examples.
