Commentaries #1 (Lesson Recap)

I will be posting summaries of each lesson I go through with you. In order to find out what worked for you and what didn't, I expect you to vote in the poll at the end of each recap. You may also comment on the respective recaps (such as this one) to elaborate further.

In this lesson, you would have come to appreciate that different parties have different points of view (POVs) when approaching the same topic. These differing POVs may colour their opinion when reading a commentary piece, and it is likely that the author would have tailored his writing for specific audiences (with respect to their POV).

You would also have been briefly introduced to Paul's Wheel of Analysis. This is a tool that can be used to evaluate a text, such as a commentary. Paul's Wheel will be revisited in the following lessons.
