“The Measure of Worth in Jane Austen’s Persuasion: An Analysis of Narrative Technique”

The topic of this essay is:
TOPIC 1
“In Jane Austen’s Persuasion,
the greatest measure of worth is being useful to others.” How accurate is this
statement?
Your analysis should pay close
attention to relevant aspects of narrative technique (i.e. it is important
attend not only to what the text conveys but the ways it
is conveyed, e.g. via dialogue, free indirect narration, allusion, figurative
language, plot structure, the use of setting, etc). 
I have also linked a document my lecturer provided explaining their ideal formatting/writing style of this essay.
