Character Analysis
Write a character analysis of any one character or a comparative character analysis of two characters in either Company, Fun Home, or Angels in America. You should develop a careful analysis that is well supported with evidence from the text. Be aware, however, that a paper that comprises long quotes strung together is not acceptable. This assignment is not a research paper but seeks to test your close-reading and interpreting skills; therefore, you should not use outside secondary criticism. You are, however, encouraged to use other primary sources, such as handbooks to literature, historical and philosophical texts, dictionaries, the Bible, mythology, etc.
I want you to focus on how these characters embody themes, ideas, or higher concepts about one or more of the follows:
• Gender/Gender Roles
• Masculinity/Femininity
• Sexual Orientation
• The stigmas around sex
• LGBTQ+ issues
• How we perceive different sexual orientations
As you observe these character, pull evidence from both the textual sources (the shows themselves) and from outside academic sources. Synthesize these arguments into one that combines the two different types of evidence.
We can write this or a similar paper for you! Simply fill the order form!
