he Yellow Wallpaper”
Thinking about “The Yellow-paper,” (1) determine what argument you found in the story (2)
determine how this argument could apply to the main characters within the story.
If you do not understand the difference between an analytical response and an argumentative
response, the information below should clarify the difference.
When creating an analytical answer, one explores and attempts to answer the hows or whys that
emerge with a particular issue. Analyzing requires you to break down a subject into its
component for examination.
When creating an argumentative answer, it seeks a clear and defined explanation of why the
issue is important. However, the explanation should not be so broad that readers cannot identify
your position or so narrow that your position cannot be argued fully.
