The student does not list several textual features or authorial choices explicitly in the essay, which weakens the analysis. Additionally, the analysis of textual features and authorial choices lacks depth, particularly in explaining how characters like Abigail and Mary Warren are influenced by societal oppression. While the student successfully interprets some textual features and links them to the thesis on female oppression, there are missed opportunities to clarify connections between character motivations and the overarching themes. Overall, the evaluation of how effectively these choices convey the chosen topic is appropriate, demonstrating a grasp of the material, but further elaboration is needed to strengthen the analysis.
