demonstrates careful reading and close analysis of the text under consideration.<\/p>\n

\u2022 has a clear, specific thesis, an interpretive claim that is supported by evidence from the text.<\/div>\n
Your thesis should appear in the last sentence of your introduction as well as in your<\/div>\n
conclusion. The best theses are sophisticated and debatable (which thus means the essays<\/div>\n
should take risks and avoid \u201cplaying it safe\u201d). You may not avoid interpreting the text by<\/div>\n
stating its meaning is up to the individual reader. You are being asked here to defend an<\/div>\n
interpretive claim.<\/div>\n
\u2022 moves beyond plot summary and even mere plot analysis. To<\/div>\n
do this you\u2019ll need to refer not just to what happens in the text<\/div>\n
(plot) but to the text\u2019s actual words. That means you\u2019ll need<\/div>\n
to quote selectively. You\u2019ll need to do this to gauge<\/div>\n
emotional states, motivation, etc. Don\u2019t pad your paper with<\/div>\n
excess quotations; only quote when you want to discuss a<\/div>\n
feature (word choice, tone, imagery, emotional content, etc.)<\/div>\n
of a passage.<\/div>\n
\u2022 introduces the text(s) in the introduction but then gets quickly to the specific issue at hand.<\/div>\n
This ensures you move very quickly beyond plot summary and into analysis and<\/div>\n
argumentation. Assume your readers are intelligent, have read the texts, and have a basic<\/div>\n
understanding of the plot, but you should also assume they are not too familiar with the<\/div>\n
specific passages you wish to discuss.<\/div>\n
\u2022 Is well structured and logically ordered.<\/div>\n
\u2022 moves clearly and substantially beyond my lecture. The above questions are specifically<\/div>\n
geared to get you to move beyond my lecture.<\/div>\n
\u2022 makes use of all handouts posted in the \u201cEssays\u201d folder, following their guidelines carefully.<\/div>\n
\u2022 is properly formatted using MLA format throughout.<\/div>\n
\u2022 includes a Works Cited page (for the primary texts) and uses proper in-text documentation<\/div>\n
(MLA format).<\/div>\n
\u2022 presents only your own original work.<\/div>\n
\u2022 is relatively free of grammar mistakes and is well structured.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
