WWII period | Browse Homework Help
Assignment: Your first essay is animage analysis which should describe one or two posters from the WWII period and discuss what they communicate, and how they express their message.
Before you start writing you may research the background information on the USA involvement in WWII and on the war effort that took place during that time. Remember, though, that this essay is not supposed to include any outside information and should containonly your personal impression and reflection.
You should choose carefully the poster(s) you will analyze.Examine them carefully and note how they make you feel. Pay attention to the style and techniques the artists use, the use of light, color, and shape, the focus, the composition of the image, and the way the elements are oriented in relationship to one another.
Prewriting: Begin by brainstorming and mapping (Keys pp. 15-16). Describe the poster(s) you chose.Write down your thoughts and feelings prompted by it. Try to formulate your main idea, then think of three or four key points in support of your claim. Think of a logical way to organize your arguments and make an informal outline.
Putting it Together:Formulate a strong thesis statement(consult Keys pp. 18-20).Choose your approach:your main point may be about how the posters compare to each other, about the message they communicate, or about their effectiveness in conveying that message.Think of an original title.
Develop your idea with several paragraphs and logical transitions between them to maintain coherence. Make sure the description of the poster(s)is detailed enough so that a reader can visualize it without actually seeing it.Use specific, expressive words. You may consider the situation the country was in at the time and discuss what social or cultural elements are reflected in the poster’s content.Concentrate on the connection between the features of the image and the effect they produce on the viewer. Analyze the way the artists appeale to their audience. Talk about their effectiveness in achieving their goals.
Wrap up with a conclusion that would remind the readers of your main argumentand provide a sense of completion (see Keys pp. 35-36 for advice on writing a good conclusion). You may revisit your main points or reflect on the issues you discussed, but make sure not to use identical wording you already employed in the introduction and the body of the paper and do not start a completely new point.
Revising Your Essay: You should revise your essay several times making sure that your draft is clear, interesting, and fits the assignment.Check that your opinion is expressed clearly, the examples and arguments are relevant and logical, and that your paper iscohesive and well-organized.

Finally, type it according to MLA style, submit itthrough Turn-It-In and place a copy in your writing portfolio.
