Choose only ONE character (but NOT the surgeon): you can choose either Captain Kimber, the Third Mate, William Wilberforce, a generic “British gentleman,” the insurance agent, Saidiya Hartman, or the girl herself
Find and analyze the excerpts in “The Dead Book” that are written in that character’s point of view
Answer the question: What is your chosen character’s opinion of “the girl” and her death? If we put this question in terms of Hartman’s own words, what “guise” does the girl take in that character’s point of view? HOW AND WHY IS THIS SECTION WRITTEN THE WAY IT IS? WRITE A FULL THESIS (TOPIC + CLAIM + 3 SUPPORTS) and put that at the top of your paper.
CHOOSE ONE POINT OF SUPPORT and WRITE ONE PARAGRAPH ON ONE OF THE POINT OF SUPPORTS from your thesis above:
Make sure that you support your claims with EVIDENCE from the text (quotations, descriptions, observations, etc.)
MAKE SURE TO STRUCTURE YOUR PARAGRAPH using the Paragraph Burger model
Important - Read this before proceeding
