Essays are death.
Essays on the analysis of Hamlet are death come to stalk me.
Seriously: this guy Shakespeare has been around since 1564, written thirty-eight plays and a buttload of sonnets, been analyzed and scrutinized and disassembled and dismembered and reassembled and cast in bronze and completely picked apart by Harvard and Yale professors for the past four-hundred-odd years and they expect freshmen to write something new and refreshing about him?
Fat chance.
This is why lit circles and Socratic Seminars would be the ideal sole teaching tool in college English classrooms.
Buncha kids come in, read a book, chat about the book, bounce ideas and suppositions off each other until something magical happens, then go on about their daily lives with no written homework to headache about while still retaining the essence of discussion and musing on the mentioned throughout their daily lives.
Perfect.
Why essay.
Whyyy essay. :c
