Chapter 15 page 373

Question about the writer's craft:


1. The author use point-by-point method to organize her essay. The reason that the author choose this method may because it is easier to follow. Instead of talking about the two different way separately, she compare both at same time.


2. I think Cohen is writing for indifferent audience. There are descriptions about the show and the time back to Victorian period. If this paper was for people who already agree with her, the audiences will know what she talking about. Thus the explanation won't be necessary. On the other hand, the paper is not strong enough to convince people who were disagree with her.


3.Cohen quote from the well known novelist Jane Austen ans Edith Warton in Victorian and Edwardian period..  She choose to quote instead of summarize because it shows the similarity and difference directly. In addition, most people already know the background in the book since they are really famous. The author don't necessary need to review it for the audience.
