Your fourth essay will be a 2-4-page image analysis. Choose an image that you’ve seen in a magazine, in a newspaper, on a website, or elsewhere. What is this image saying to you? Along with summarizing it and its background, you may want to focus on some of the following: Why did you choose this image? Is it memorable or unremarkable? Does it facilitate learning or foster misconceptions? Is it trying to get you, as the viewer, to take some sort of action? What does the image say about our society? You may review the tips on the handout as well as ideas in the Literary Analyses chapter for further ideas.
