How Can I Use Critical Perspectives and Critics Quotes in My Answer?

The best way to integrate critics and critical perspectives into your answers is to know a few short, sharp points that will back up your argument. With critical quotes, it is not necessarily about long, in-depth quotes, but rather a couple of shorter ones that clearly lend to your argument and allow you to explain it further. For critical quotes, this will mainly be about finding one or two quotes for each topic that you understand, memorising them, and knowing how and where to implement them into an answer. This is perhaps best done after your own analysis, so that the quotes back up what you have already said, and not the other way around.Another useful tool to have is to know about some of the critical theories and perspectives that can be used in interpreting texts. These do not have to be elaborate and could come down to knowing generally what they are about. These could include a Marxist Critique (Concerned with representation of wealth and class) or Feminist Critique (Concerned with representation of women in society). If a point or quote you are using clearly lends to one of these, then this would also be good to put into an answer after your own analysis to bolster your argument.
