I don't know what "To the Burbling Deep" is about 'cause I made What the central idea or ideas of the text is, try to connect those details back to that central idea and then connect that central idea to your own argument. Is it repeated? Does that detail or detail similar to it appear elsewhere in the text? And if you see a lot of similar details, how do those details prove the argument that you're trying to make? If you have a sense of So when you find the detail, ask yourself, how does that detail related back to your analysis or your argument. "To The Burbling Deep" where Captain Bigsby huffs angrily at Eniola but doesn't say anything, and that's mean or, at least, impolite, but it's not as strongĪs him yelling at her. ![]() Remember to use strongĭetails to get good evidence. But if we're lucky, myįriend Jordan will write one. Now there is no such book that I know of about a kraken punching girl pirate. You already messed up, he's implying that he's impatient. To be scrubbed yesterday," as an immediately because Saying, "I'm impatient," But by saying, "They need And in that first example when he demands thatĮniola clean the portholes, he's not literally Little buddy," with his words, he is saying it with his actions. So while he's not saying, "I will take care of you Use explicit evidence where Captain Bigsby is being a jerk and then when he isĪpologizing for being a jerk. I was wrong, and I have beenĪ jerk, and I am sorry." Now both of those examples You punched that kraken, and more importantly, you showed no fear when you stood up to me. Tends to Eniola's broken leg, he tells her, "Eniola, that was some mighty fine pirating you did. But by the end of the story, when Eniola has proven her worth, saved the day, and humbled the captain, he treats her, and everyone around him, with much greater respect and deference. "But my name is-" "Does it look like IĬare?" the captain snarled. Get to work!." "Yes, sir, Captain," Eniola said. There, what's her name! These portholes need toīe scrubbed yesterday. On page 34 of "To the Burbling Deep," Bigsby says to Eniola, "You And then back it up with an explicit example of Captain Bigsby being dismissive and rude with a page "Captain Bigsby is dismissive and rude to Eniola when she first joins the crew of the pirate shipĪlbatross," I might say.
