The setting essay will be a traditional five-paragraph essay with an introductory paragraph with a thesis statement, three body paragraphs that discuss various aspects of the setting of the short story, and a concluding paragraph. For this setting essay, you are to select a story in which historical, physical, or geographical settings shape characters and events. You can choose to write about any one of those elements of the setting or a combination of the elements. For example, the essay can approach simply the historical significance of the setting in all three body paragraphs or a combination of the elements such as two body paragraphs on the geographical elements of the setting and one on the physical. You can focus on simply one area or “mix and match” the three areas (historical, geographical, and physical) as you see fit. Assignment: Your task is to write a five paragraph character analysis essay about how setting influences a piece of literature. Once you have chosen a story to analyze for setting, choose three ways in which setting affects the plot, characters, or story as whole. You may also choose to analyze how a particular type of setting (historical, geographical, and/or physical) affects the story.
