Detailed explanation-1: -The purpose of a literary analysis is to demonstrate why the author used specific ideas, word choices, or writing structures to convey his or her message.
Detailed explanation-2: -An analytical essay means you will need to present some type of argument, or claim, about what you are analyzing. An analytical essay is not a summary. Analytical essays usually concentrate on how the piece was written – for example how certain themes present themselves in a story.
Detailed explanation-3: -Writing a literary analysis can help you get a better understanding of a work of literature. Regardless of the subject text’s theme, a literary analysis is likely to offer more depth and context regarding its plot, events, characters and any other relevant elements of the piece.
Detailed explanation-4: -As you write, follow the standard structure of an academic essay: An introduction that tells the reader what your essay will focus on. A main body, divided into paragraphs, that builds an argument using evidence from the text. A conclusion that clearly states the main point that you have shown with your analysis.
