Blog Assignment #4- Persuasive writing.
I am in prosecutions for mr.hyde. I believe he should be guilty and sentenced to death. I believe he did kill Sir Danvers Carew because the maid was watching it from the window . That is the only proof that we have is the maid. mr. hyde would do something like that. Hes the reason dr.lanyon died he gave a note to dr.lanyon showed him he had a surprise for him so dr. lanyon went . mr. lanyon clearly saw mr.jeckyll turn to mr.hyde. which made him die. if mr. hyde would have never send him the note he wouldve never died . so he killed mr.lanyon why wouldnt he kill Sir Danvers Carew. He has also done major damage to utterson . The only person who he hasnt done damage to was mr. jeckyll because he is mr.jeckyll / mr. hyde. If you want to no make him guilty fine you can let it slide but your going to regret it when he does severe damage to another person .

Irving,
ReplyDeleteI think you have a great initial brainstorm for your writing assignment. I like that you have already considered the specific evidence and eyewitnesses from the story. However, you need do need to do some work in elaborating and organizing your ideas in distinct paragraphs. For this writing assignment understand that you are to write from the point of view of an attorney speaking directly to the jury (Victorian citizens) trying to convince them that Hyde is guilty (as per your choice above). Just as with any other writings, you need to craft an introductory and closing statement that is both powerful and captivating. The middle of your writing/speech should reveal your reasons for Hyde's innocence (separated by paragraphs). Inside each body paragraph remember that you need to fully support the reasons by recalling all of the evidence, witnesses, and other facts that help prove your point of view. Try watching some courtroom TV dramas or view some youtube clips of courtroom closing statements in order to get a feel for the language and phrases that are common in this type of writing/speech. This will help to give your writing authenticity.
