In “Coming to Terms,” Joseph Harris writes: “In coming to terms with a text by another writer, then, it seems to me that you need to make three moves:

·      Define the project of the writer in your own terms.

·      Note the keywords or passages in the text

·      Assess the uses and limits of this approach.”

Leaving aside uses and limits for the moment, I’d like you to write 250-300 words on Edwards’ “Evidence,” addressing Harris’s first two bullet points.

You should make some observations about the words and/or passages in the essay that stand out to you (i.e. answer bullet point #2). Then, analyze and describe why these words and/or passages are important to Edwards’ text. In doing so, you will be making a claim or claims that work towards articulating the project of Edwards’ text.
