An Analytical Literary Analysis by Tobias Wolff For A Literary Analysis Essay by Tobias Wolff
An Analytical Literary Analysis by Tobias Wolff For A Literary Analysis Essay by Tobias WolffThis article is an analytical essay by Tobias Wolff for a literary analysis essay. The essay is an analysis of Tolstoy's 'Anna Karenina' by Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy. This essay analyzes Tolstoy's novel and takes it to its logical conclusion - a metaphysical response to the moral themes in the novel.A book is said to be a very interesting book because of the questions that it asks or that it answers. And I can think of no better way to answer the question of what is a book than to do a literary analysis of the novel.For those who are unfamiliar with this writing style, the style will probably be fairly obvious to you. For those who are familiar with this writing style, this article will outline some of the core points of Wolff's essay.Wolff uses a non-linear perspective to make his point, which is relatively unique among essayists who use this writing style. Wolff takes a look at the moral and metaphysical themes in the novel and finds in them a metaphysical structure that fits well into an essay format.In terms of structure, the writing style is mostly linear. The idea is to begin with the human soul and then move on to moral themes. The moral and metaphysical themes in Tolstoy's novel are never fully developed, but Wolff takes them in and then runs through them, asking questions about each one.There is a thesis statement at the beginning of the essay, followed by several paragraphs to four-line questions about San-trio, Anna Karenina, and Tolstoy. The thesis statement is quite clear in this essay and starts with an assertion that this is an analytical essay. I believe that Wolff would go so far as to say that this is one of the most 'analytical' essays he has ever written.The moral themes that Wolff takes to the end are based on the theme of freedom and religion, both of which he believes are central to Tolstoy's writing style. The freedom and religious themes are also wrapped up in another theme, namely the goodness of human nature.The ultimate conclusion of the essay is that Tolstoy provides a very interesting reading experience because of the questions that the novel raises and answers. At the end of the essay, Wolff does something that is almost unique to Tolstoy: he makes the reader ask questions and make the case for his/her own arguments. It is an interesting (and unique) way to make a reader think about a particular book.
