On a side note before reviewing, Anna Sewell most definately
*did* intend Black Beauty to be an allegory for the treatment of women in
Victorian society. |

You seem to be drawing parallels between women''s fashion in
the Victorian era and the way they made animals fashionable. The first
paragraph is short and somewhat sweet. I think it could use a few more
sentences making referencing more of what is to come: corsets, horse reins,
etc. Although, I really like your thesis, and it is the most clear one I''ve
read. If you want, you could elaborate on the exact social function of each
of the items of clothing (I''m considering horseshoes and horse clothing...).
Especially since it''s only 800 words so far... and I think you might run out
of parallels between woman and horse (and dog..etc). More fun title? Stop! In
the Name of Fashion.. before you break a heart |

The direct connection between the mistreatment of animals and
Victorian women is clearly established as the thesis of this essay. The
author gives great examples of how “corrective” measures were
used on animals and women during the Victorian period. I think comparing the
bearing rein and corsets was genius. |

Ahh a different route, how refreshing. Focused throughout but
horribly short of the word count. Also, present tense makes things more
urgent. Go back and make it all present tense. |

My browser shows HTML''s as all weird and messy, but that
actually has nothing to do with your project so I''m not going to penalize
you for it. Your pictures were adressed in the paper, and the overall
organization is clear. In the face of my browser screwing your paper up, it
actually suffers little, showing an impressive job in terms of its structure. |

Good so far. Very structured. No problems at all. Everything is
very organized - picture and text. Like the juxtaposition. |
|
|
Reviewer 3 |
The organization is at best presented in a mediocre fashion. The
paragraphs show a logical transition but it seems that there was little to no
effort in the organization other than the obvious here is one thought ending
and another starting. |

Reviewer 4 |
Of course it''s organized, it''s not long enough to get
unorganized. You need a thousand more words. But there''s a lot to write
about, I believe in you. |

The flow is smooth and distinct, and the transitions between
topics are clear and well designed. Little to no fluff, its all to the point
and a neccesary part of the paper itself. |

Reviewer 2 |
In between good and very good. The words pain and cruelty are
painfully overused. Grab a thesaurus and have some fun. Some sentences do not
make much sentence: i.e. "cannot fulfill its own use to humans and loses
any little standing in society." HUH?? Quotes always incorporated nicely
on the other hand!! Overall, great paper... excellent use of media to
illustrate your point. |

Reviewer 3 |
The paragraphs are short, choppy, and loaded with quotes. This
essay was a best skeletal, it seems that the basis for a great paper is here,
however there is no substance to the words. The entire essay seems like an
outline for something that is waiting to be taken to the next level. |

Reviewer 4 |
The flow between the pictures and quotes works quite well. You
can add more commentary. You should bring it to the present and talk about
models killing themselves in the name of fashion, starving themselves... |
