GENERAL COMMENTS
Instructor
It's clear that you have a solid idea as what you want to analyze and using the Marxist Literary Theory is very applicable; however, your thesis statement needed to be focused and that would have helped your paper to be more focused.
You used the same paragraph format and changed only the government "act" that you wanted to highlight. You repeated the same one or two phrases throughout the entire paper. This made the paper cumbersome, and your argument did not flow as well as it could have.
Additionally, your quotes did not help with proving your thesis. The sources could be more useful if you pulled out their authors' main points. Marxist Literary Theory should consider who has the power, who does not, and the result; what sets of beliefs drive the characters; how power is allocated differently; what power struggles are present.
10 additional points were deducted because you did not use your primary source - no direct quotes and it is not listed on your Works Cited page.
