Structuring a Critical Analysis Paper
Most critical analysis papers begin with a short summary of the work and then dive in to the argument. Since most of these paper assignments are short, it is important to be concise in all parts of your analysis. Writing an outline (and following it) is crucial to remain focused on your argument and avoid summary or irrelevant description.

The purpose for writing a critique is to evaluate somebody’s work (a book, an essay, a movie, a painting…) in order to increase the reader’s understanding of it. A critical analysis is subjective writing because it expresses the writer’s opinion or evaluation of a text. Analysis means to break down and study the parts. Writing a critical paper requires two steps: critical reading and critical writing.
1.    Identify the author’s thesis and purpose
2.    Analyze the structure of the passage by identifying all main ideas
3.    Consult a dictionary or encyclopedia to understand material that is unfamiliar to you
4.    Make an outline of the work or write a description of it
5.    Write a summary of the work
6.    Determine the purpose which could be
o    To inform with factual material
o    To persuade with appeal to reason or emotions
o    To entertain (to affect people’s emotions)
7.    Evaluate the means by which the author has accomplished his purpose
•    If the purpose is to inform, has the material been presented clearly, accurately, with order and coherence?
•    If the purpose is to persuade, look for evidence, logical reasoning, contrary evidence
•    If the purpose was to entertain, determine how emotions are affected: does it make you laugh, cry, angry? Why did it affect you?
Consider the following questions: How is the material organized? Who is the intended audience? What are the writer’s assumptions about the audience? What kind of language and imagery does the author use?
