The purpose behind the essay is to write down what you are thinking so other can read it and understand. Whether its visually, emotionally, physically( if its telling them to do something, persuasive) Essays are written in outline because it can be misleading if there was no rules. The reader would get bored and wouldn't understand the main key the author is really trying to tell them. An example how this form would help is when kids should be playing outside more than playing video games. It would give an introduction and body and reasons and sums it all up. But if it wasn't the author would most likely mess up and talk about what they should see outside. What weather they should go. What time. All misleading to give reasons why video games are bad for children.

Answer:

ESSAY'S THEME: ABORTION LEGALIZATION IN LATIN-AMERICA.

Step-by-step explanation:

WHAT A COMPARATIVE ESSAY IS?

It is a text through an author expresses an opinion about a specific theme by COMPARING two different positions. To do it possible the author must be INFORMED to be able to argue about his or her theme. There are some things that the author needs to take into account at the moment of drafting his or her essay:

  • WHAT IS MY TEXT TALKING ABOUT?
  • WHAT ARE THE RELATIONS AND THE DIFFERENCES THAT MY TWO POSITIONS HAVE?
  • WHAT IS MY ESSAY’S HYPOTHESIS?

There is a real-life scenario where a comparative essay could be needed and useful:

YOU WANT TO TALK IN YOUR ESSAY ABOUT THE LEGALIZATION OF ABORTION IN LATIN AMERICA COUNTRIES. To correctly argue about pros and cons about changing these countries constitutions you, as the author, need to be OBJECTIVE and include the both parts of the discussion; in one hand you will be listing all the arguments that the people who are against abortion legalization have and in the other what do the people who support abortion have to say.

At this respect you, at least at the conclusions part of the essay, must have an opinion to defend, so you will be using all the arguments to say what you think and give your reasons. Thus, the PRINCIPAL PURPOSE of the essay could be to SUPPORT or to REFUSE the abortion legalization. Also, you will be contextualizing the Latin-American societies in order to present real and reliable arguments.
