Choose one short story we have read and narrow to one of the author’s themes. Then, discuss how the author uses literary elements to illustrate the theme. Example thesis sentence: Jackson uses character, setting, and symbolism to illustrate the theme of hypocrisy. The essay should be multi-paragraph and include examples from the short story. For example, with the above thesis, body paragraph one would discuss how Jackson uses the characters in the story to illustrate the theme of hypocrisy. Body paragraph two would focus on Jackson’s use of setting to show the theme, etc.
