Jenn's feedback:

"You have presented evidence to clearly explain Kierkegaard's argument. You have also presented the information and evidence in a logical manner that lends well to helping the reader understand such a challenging topic. You would be able to increase readers' understanding further by presenting Kierkegaard's argument toward the beginning of the introduction. Despite the presentation of so much evidence, there are no in-text citations. Make sure that any information that you used from the text is cited to avoid plagiarism issues. Last, you have concluded the paper with a very basic conclusion. Consider elaborating on it by including a summary of the main points made in the paper and reiterating the overall goal of the paper.
