In Madame de Beumont’s “Beauty and the Beast” and Angelica Carter’s “The Tigers Bride”there is a comparison made between the different types of relationships that the beauty and the beast share. In Madames de Beumont’s, the beast is controlled by the beauty due to her flawlessness and elegance while in Carters the beast is instead the one that’s controlling. In the article I read by Iluia O. Basu the effectiveness of the article was accomplished from her use of logos. By using common logic and evidence to back up her reasoning she is able to compare the differences of beauty. Basu uses quotes and facts as a foundation and is then able to draw conclusions from then and use it as her reasoning. Basu uses inductive reasoning a lot in her article that helps make it more reasonable. By using inductive reasoning she is able to persuade readers more easily. She also uses many concrete details and commentary very successfully. The structures of her sentences flowed well and the added concrete details and commentary also flowed well within the structures of the sentences. She used her quotes and commentary in order to back up her thesis which is a technique that I have also been taught to use. I feel that the overall structure of the article was very successful because she begins the introduction with her reasoning of both novels and then uses quotes and commentary in her body paragraphs to contribute to her thesis. Basu’s use of concrete details and commentary is very easy to comprehend and is very similar to many other essays ive read as well as written. Because the structure and simplicity of her writing it is easier to understand her article. Basu also uses vocabulary that is comprehensible which helps readers to understand her reasoning. After reading the article I wasn’t surprised because the article was very similar to the style of writing that I am used to. I feel that the article was very comprehensible and was very successful and straight to the point.
