Read the attached quotation from literary critic Howard Hibbett about Japanese author Ryunosuke Akutagawa and explain in a two-page, five-paragraph essay, intro, 3 supporting, and conclusion, how it relates to the Akutagawa short stories “In a Grove,” “Rashomon,” and “The Martyr.” Do not go over 2 pages.
“What he did was to question the values of his society, dramatize the complexities of human psychology, and study, with a Zen taste for paradox, the precarious balance of illusion and reality” (Hibbett 12).
Present this quotation in your introduction (with a clear signal phrase before the quotation). Then your thesis should be that one or more of these traits can be found in these three stories. First supporting paragraph will be “Rashomon”, second supporting paragraph will be “Martyr”, and third supporting paragraph will be “In a Grove”. You can write about values for the rashomon, the complexities of humanity for the martyr, and balance between illusion and truth for the in a grove. Those will be a thesis.
In your essay, at the beginning of each paragraph in each topic sentence, make it precisely clear which parts or part of Hibbett’s statement are reflected in each story that that paragraph is analyzing. Analyze only one story per paragraph. Make the connection to the quotation clear and convincing.
I will also attach the prof’s explanation on the file.
