Paper #1: Rhetorical Analysis
_____ I. Introduction (15 points)
A. Interesting opener and thorough introduction of topic
You do open this paragraph with an appropriately broad comment. However, you could have achieved a more gradually paced introduction had you introduced Zipes and his essay (by title) a bit later in this paragraph. For instance, you could comment further on your initial statement. about the genre of fairy tales as well as Disney’s role in their history. It would make more sense at that point to then introduce the author and title to be discussed (as you come closer to your thesis statement).
B. Clear, concise thesis statement; main points are specific
This thesis indicates specific main points, but you need to indicate what part of Zipes’ argument you intend to discuss as you analyze his use of these rhetorical tools.
_____ II. Structure (30 points)
A. Organizational structure and development follow what is indicated in the thesis;
topics are not brought up at random or in a disorderly fashion
These body paragraphs are arranged logically, in the order indicated in your thesis.
B. Transitions introduce what you’ll discuss in each paragraph and show how the examples in each paragraph are relevant to the stated aim of your paper
Consistently smooth and logical transitions really help to tie your ideas together nicely here!
_____ III. Content (40 points)
A. Adequately developed explanation of each rhetorical strategy (using specific examples
from the text)
It appears that you do have a basic understanding of these rhetorical concepts. However, in places you need to more clearly and accurately articulate their function. You include specific examples from the text, but many of these also need to be explained with greater clarity.
B. Adequately developed explanation of each example: location, function, strategy
Had your examples for ethos and pathos been more accurate, your ensuing discussion of their function would have been more clear. Also, you needed to comment in more detail on Zipes’ use of these as particular strategies. Your analysis for logos was significantly stronger in both these regards!
C. Use of relevant paraphrasing and quoting from the text; quotations are smoothly
integrated into the essay and include direct follow-up comments
You choose interesting quotations from Zipes’ text; however, the particular relevance of these needs to be made clear to your reader. This is often best accomplished with direct, specific follow up comments for each passage. Consider, too, how these comments would afford you prime opportunities to address all aspects of your analysis (such as function and strategy).

D. Thoughtful, well-developed conclusion paragraph
You recap your main ideas efficiently this final paragraph! Your thought-provoking reflections here help to end this essay with graceful insight.
_____ IV. Technical (15 points)
MLA format, grammar, punctuation, spelling, diction, etc.
Proofread carefully to catch occasional spelling and punctuation errors as well as unclear word choices. Also, be sure that you use italics for longer titles and quotation marks for shorter ones.
_____ Total (100 points)
