This is not a retelling or a summary of the Ramayana. It is an examination by a modern person giving his or her scholarly reading of the work. The key question is, how helpful is this modern person’s interpretation? How does it shed light on the meaning of the work?
Prepare an overview/summary of the essay by examining these points:
Identify the author’s thesis in the essay. What is the author’s argument?
Present the major areas of discussion; these subtopics reinforce the thesis. Take time to look up any terms that need definition.
Prepare the evaluation section of the essay:
How does the essay shed new light on the primary text, or the culture it examines?
Select statements from the essay in quote or paraphrase, and evaluate each in terms of your own views about the primary source. If you were in a conversation with the author, what sections of the work would you be interested in talking about?
Essay format:
