I need help with writing the outline for my literary criticism paper on 1984. I really just need an example so I can see how it should look. I had found one I wanted to use when I was doing my thesis statement but I don't know where it is anymore.

The theme I am working on is the government taking away the life of the citizens' through the use of psychological and physical torture, constantly changing past and present information, and narrowing the language with newspeak and the concept of doublethink. I'm not even sure which order these should go in.

I actually like and hate this book because it makes me think so much to the point where I overthink the whole thing so I really want to do good on this. I had a similar problem with my thesis statement.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.



P.S. I know I posted in another thread with this but nobody has responded and this is really important.

Sorry, but I hadn't replied as teachers usually have specific requirements.

Would not just the typical essay format work? Has you teacher given any special instructions on how it should look?

As long as you cover both sides and present evidence from the book, the format should follow automatically.

It's a very long time since I was marked on Orwell!
