In order to illustrate and to support your argument, you will need to cite from and to refer to specific passages from the various texts you have studied with the class and the one you have chosen to study on your own. You should also use at least one item from the “Orwell Work Cited” document found in the DOCUMENTS section of the class website to help you make your case. Your essay should include a MLA style Work Cited page.

I have chosen to use "such such were the joys" and "how the poor die" Could anyone help me choose an argument or help me build an outline for this paper. I am stuck with my wheels spinning but cant seem to get going.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks :brickwall

Well, a good place to start would be that Orwell wrote with only task in mind - educating the masses about subjects which were important to him and which he felt needed exposure.

If you follow that track, you should be ok, because he was certainly exposing social issues in both.

Should i argue about the way he went about educating people or getting his thoughts out there? How he taught from his own experiences first hand?
help with an outline please!
ugh!!!!

I would definitely go with Orwell writing from first-hand experience.

He put his life into everything he wrote, with even Winston Smith in 1984 being based on Orwell physically.

Another point which will come into it is Orwell's precision in writing - he wanted to be absolutely clear that the message was understood.

Thank you so much for your help.
Should my outline look somthing like this?
If not could you fix it. so i could get my but moving on this paper

What I would like to argue.
How Orwell writes with task in mind
• educates people with what he believed was important
• Educates through firsthand experience
• Very descriptive smell feeling taste texture.
•
How will I build the argument. (write about)
• Subjects he tried to expose that had affected his life.
• first hand As if your there with him rooting for him
• Talk about how he describes everything in such detail, builds a mental picture

Thanks again

Yep, I think that's good.

You could also add in a style comment - Orwell's precision is legendary.
