Character analysis essay using Trifles and/or Fences.

For your last formal essay, you will write a character analysis essay using Trifles and/or Fences. A character analysis is more than a character description. It considers a complex character’s motivations and how conflicts arise from those sometimes-conflicting motivations, and it also analyzes how a character’s personality and growth (or lack) help convey the ideas and themes of the work as a whole. You have a few options to choose from. Please choose one (don’t combine prompts): Option #1: Choose two characters from Trifles to compare and contrast, using specific examples (key lines/scenes, etc.) from the play to support your claims about the characters. Option #2: Choose two characters from Fences to compare and contrast, using specific examples (key lines/scenes, etc.) from the play to support your claims about the characters. Option #3: Analyze one character in Trifles and make an argument about what the character represents in the play’s greater meaning. Option #4: Analyze one character in Fences and make an argument about what the character represents in the play’s greater meaning
