FINDING EVIDENCE FOR ESSAY Get out your Ophelia Identity Essay

need in each body paragraph? What are you proving? Think, pair, share: Do you think that you
should… Find all 3 pieces of evidence from one
conversation/page/scene? Find your first piece of evidence from different
conversations/parts of the story? WHY?
FINDING EVIDENCE FOR ESSAY Let’s make a list of possible topics for
your body paragraphs and summarize what kinds of evidence you could use for each one…
What are some of the different causes that caused Ophelia to form an identity as an insane woman?
What evidence (parts/conversations/experiences) can prove that? From beginning? From Act III?

ROMANTIC POETRY NOTESBriefly, let’s take notes on/review some
important poetry terms… Mood: How the reader is called upon to feel
by the author’s words/images. Ask yourself: “What words/images cause me to feel the way I do? Is this the author’s intention?”
Imagery: Descriptions that can be experienced using one of the five senses. Imagery helps to create the reader’s mood.
Diction: The choice of words that the author uses. When examining diction, always examine at least 3 connotations that are associated with the word and look for what that particular word choice adds to the poem and to our mood.
ROMANTIC POETRY NOTES
Figurative language: When an author makes a statement that is not meant to be taken literally. Types of figurative language: Metaphor: Comparing two unalike things Simile: Comparing two unalike things using
“like,” “as,” or “than” Personification: Giving a non-human thing
human-like characteristics When an author uses figurative language,
always ask, “why?” and “what is he trying to suggest through this figurative language?”
ROMANTIC POETRY NOTES
Tone: The speaker’s emotions towards a particular subject (ex.: towards nature, a character, etc.). Ask yourself: what clues do I have that the speaker feels the way he/she does?
Theme: The message/statement that the author is trying to communicate to the reader. It is usually a statement of what we SHOULD do/think/believe as humans.
