"One day, Before I realized fat kids were not designed to climb trees, I fell out of a tree, And bruised the right side of my body." I don't know what techniques might lie in this seemingly un-analysable text. So suggestions are welcomed!

I have been reading a lot of Hamlet and sample Hamlet essays and I notice that they say a lot of "Marxism", "existentialism", etc. Are these critical approaches required to be mentioned in my essay? Why haven't my teachers said anything about these? They basically told us to write an essay as...
