Writing an Expository Essay by Samuel R. Ellis

Writing an Expository Essay by Samuel R. EllisThe Cambridge University Press has published a new work of the author on writing an expository essay. 'Writing an Expository Essay: Essays in the Renaissance Period' by Samuel R. Ellis is a classic book that teaches the student how to write an expository essay.An Introduction to an Expository Essay is divided into four sections, each with a subheading that leads to a chapter. The first section discusses the nature of the essay, while the second discusses the material to be discussed, the third describes the structure of the essay, and the fourth section, which I have titled 'Preface,' presents a summary of the thesis of the essay. This section of the Introduction to Expository Essays starts with a description of the essay type.The second section of the work stresses the writer's nature. It continues with a definition of the term 'expository essay.' Then it takes us to the outline, with a comparison between the manuscript and the outline.T he third part involves details of form, which is followed by a review of the various styles of writing. Following that is the analysis of the main questions that the essay must answer. Then come the arguments and the conclusion. Finally, the author's style, and how he will modify his style as he evolves as a writer are examined.The student should be able to follow the writing style of the writer throughout the essays. For example, when it comes to essay topics, Ellis always begins with some general topic on the main theme of the essay. He then moves on to an examination of the thesis and a brief description of the arguments supporting it.The writer's purpose and the style are both important. The aim is to show that the writer is not just presenting one side of the story, but both sides, especially if there is a need to respond to an argument that someone is making.The reader should understand the writer's intent by the time the essay is finished. In addition, there should be some te ndency toward ambiguity. This helps the reader to engage with the writer's ideas, but allows them room to make up their own minds about the issue.While some students would feel uncomfortable taking a philosophy or science class without a teacher explaining what an expository essay is, I believe that most of us should have a good idea about what an expository essay is before taking the course. Using the author's introduction, we can easily learn what it is all about. We can then become better writers and better readers.
