The audience of each of these works, is clearly the professor, but it is also clear that the different essays can be read by my peers as constructive examples of thesis building and the various revisions can show the pitfalls of writing as well as the success of building evidentiary interpretations. The introduction paragraph of the poetry piece is a perfect example of this idea, as I had to remove the passive voice to build the style of my essay and make the thesis more clear to the reader.

It seems likely that in a thousand years (if there

Kessler identifies the theological, philosophical and societal ramifications of the evolution of religion in the West.
