Question

Which of the following does a literary analysis include?

O Eyewitness accounts
O Personal narrative
O Credible evidence
O Alternate ending

Answer 1

C) Credible Evidence

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of Literary Analysis: 'evaluates the elements of literature in an essay, usually using a formal tone'. If you are evaluating a piece of writing, you would pull from credible and trustworthy evidence rather than eyewitnesses, personal narratives, or an alternate ending.

Answer 2

Credible evidence

Step-by-step explanation:

Eyewitness accounts – this is not the right answer. There is actually no eyewitness in that specific sense of the word when it comes to literal work.

Personal narrative – this is not correct. The analysis is a scientific method and it should not use personal accounts. Therefore, the personal narrative is not the analysis.

Credible evidence – this is the correct answer. When trying to do the literal analysis one should use as objective facts as possible. This means they should note facts, such as the name of the author, the name of the work, publisher, etc. All these are credible evidence that can be easily confirmed and which are objective.

Alternate ending – this is not the right answer. The point of the analysis is not to change the narrative or speculate, so an alternative ending should not be included.
