PERSUASIVE ANALYSIS SECTION Introduce and analyze your theory – for example, you might maintain that Ophelia is the only innocent character in the play, or that Spying is what is “Rotten in Denmark,” etc. YOU NEED at least 5 pieces of textual support (AKA supporting quotes from the book) to show support – this should be about 5 paragraphs long. CONCESSION This is one paragraph where you make concession, or concede to an argument against you. Remember how every good attorney knows what the other side will argue? Well, this is kind of it. CONCLUSION In one paragraph, conclude your persuasive analysis by hitting your strongest point home once again. Be innovative with your approach – do not restate from your first section verbatim.
