WHY I WRITE?. A DIFFERENT KIND OF ACADEMIC TEXT.
The most common knowledge people have about academic texts are the essays, and the image of essays as the most frequent and better known example of academic text, but if we can imagine how complex is the art of writing we can also imagine that maybe in that complexity the academic text are more than assays. Even if I dont have a big knowledge about academic writing, I would say that this text wrote by George Orwell can be academic but presented in a different way not well known for me.
This text makes me think about the complexity of writing academic texts, because at least for me, it broke down the walls of academic writing I had and suggested me other ways of writing for the academy.
That is true, when we think about academic texts, it's impossible not to have as reference the essay's structure to define if the new text is academic or not. However, as you said, the art of writing is complex, because there are many and different ways to express the thoughts, feelings, and intentios.
