Help with Writing:
For verse plays, the MLA Handbook
says:
In citing commonly studied
verse plays and poems, omit page numbers altogether and cite by division
(act, scene, canto, book, part) and line, with periods separating the various
numbers.
In an example it gives for a
citation of Act 5, scene 1, lines 5-12 of
Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra, the in-text citation appears as: (Ant.
5.1.5-12). The handbook states that the titles of famous plays are often
abbreviated.
Topic Sentence:
In Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Antony is the most honorable character because he is loyal, courageous, and true to his word.
Each of the highlighted words would change in your paper, depending upon the character you selected and the specific traits you want to use for your support of the claim.
Clincher:
Because of his loyalty, courage, and honesty, Antony is the most honorable character in Julius Caesar.
