What a finished HUMN-303N Week 3 literary passage analysis looks like
The passage sits on the page, quoted accurately and set off, with line numbers where the text has them, and the paper is shorter than people expect because the quotation is doing work rather than filling space. Underneath it the writing behaves like evidence. A sentence notices that the stanza's only full stop lands mid-line, or that the same verb returns three times with a different object each time, or that a sixteen-word sentence follows four short ones. Each noticing is tied to its exact position in the text. The reading built on top is small and specific: not what the poem is about, but what one repeated sound or one broken line is doing to a person reading it out.
How a HUMN-303N Week 3 example is structured
A sentence of orientation opens it, naming author, title and the edition the quotation came from, since a different edition can move a line. The passage comes next, reproduced exactly, punctuation and capitals included. Then the analysis proceeds through the text in reading order rather than by category, because a reader following along should not have to jump backward: first line to last, noticing as it goes. The claim gathers those noticings and states what the passage does, in a sentence that would be false of a paraphrase. A paragraph then tests the claim against the hardest part of the passage, the bit that does not fit, which is the part a marker reads hardest. The close returns to the quoted words one final time.
The text is printed
The quoted passage appears in the sample itself, accurately and in full, so the argument and its evidence can be read without a second document open.
Reading order, not device order
The analysis travels through the passage from its first word to its last rather than gathering all the images into one paragraph and all the sounds into another.
Devices earn their place
Each named feature is followed by what it does here: this line break delays the verb, this repetition makes the third instance land harder than the first two.
A claim a paraphrase would break
The argument is worded so that restating the passage in plain prose would falsify it, which is the test separating an interpretation from a summary.
The awkward line gets attention
The sample goes at the part of the passage that resists the reading instead of around it, since that paragraph is usually where the analysis marks concentrate.
Where marks go in HUMN-303N Week 3
Summary wearing the clothes of analysis is the first thing to go: a paper that walks through what happens in the passage has written a longer version of the passage, and the analysis rows have nothing to award. Following that, quotation without pointing, where three lines are dropped in and the paragraph continues as though the quoting were the argument. A further loss comes from naming devices, since listing alliteration and enjambment scores nothing on its own; what earns the row is saying what the repeated consonant does to the pace of the line. Misquotation is a small deduction that reads badly out of proportion to its size. And a reading that could be true of any poem in the book has not been anchored to this one.

HUMN-303N Week 3 questions, answered
Can the passage be from a novel rather than a poem?
Usually, and prose brings its own material: sentence length, where the paragraph breaks, which character gets reported speech and which gets summarized. The one adjustment is length, since a page of prose holds fewer noticeable features per word than eight lines of verse, so the extract chosen is shorter than students expect. Send the assignment and the sample is sized accordingly.
How much of the passage has to be quoted?
Enough that a reader never has to trust you. Where the text is short the whole thing goes in; where it is long, the sample quotes the sentences it argues from and identifies the rest by page and line. Padding a paper with unanalyzed quotation is visible immediately, because the discussion around it thins out to almost nothing.
Do I need secondary criticism?
Only where the rubric asks. A passage analysis is unusual in that the primary text supplies almost all the evidence, and published criticism brought in without need tends to take over the argument. Where a section does require sources, the sample uses them for a fact about the text or its date, and keeps the reading its own.
