Excerpt from Essay-Writing for Schools: A Practical Exposition of the Principles of This Form of Composition, Illustrated by Models and by Examples Drawn From the English Classics; And Designed to Meet the Requirements of the Public Examinations
First of all, what is an Essay? Perhaps it has never occurred to you to ask yourself that question. Perhaps you have taken for granted that, even if you do not feel immediately equal to making one, at least you know what an essay is. Let us, at any rate, make sure of this point, at the outset; for, in making an essay, as in many other things, the first step is to know exactly what it is that you want to make.
An Essay is the setting forth, the making clear, the illustration of a particular fact,1 idea, truth,2 or emotion, or of a particular group of facts, ideas, truths, or emotions, in a short written composition.
