I am currently taking a course called Classics 188 which looks into the idea of justice in both the ancient and modern worlds. In the class, we get to dive into the origins of the court system in Athens and how those ideals and rules grew and changed overtime.

We recently just wrote a paper that was supposed to compare the standards and execution of justice in the ancient world with that of the movie 12 Angry Men, which we had watched in class earlier in the quarter. To write this paper, I referenced many of the main concepts and ideas that we have used in CTW to create a thorough and and comprehensive argument in which I explained how the justice system in the modern world is much more intuitive then that of the ancient world due to the addition of the jury system.

Throughout the paper, I used a lot of quotes to give hard evidence to support my argument. I used the hamburger method that we learned in class to make sure that I gave the most in complete analysis of my quotes and allowed the reader to have a full perspective. I also provided a fair amount of metacommentary that gave my paper more depth and added some needed length to the topic. The use of these skills throughout the duration of CTW have helped me in writing better papers in my other classes which is very useful.
