Consider questions that ask \u201chow\u201d or \u201cwhy\u201d rather than \u201cwhat?\u201d&nbsp; Without a clear thesis, you may need to speculate, to ignore evidence, or to make claims you cannot support.&nbsp; Try to avoid rehashing class discussion; original thought is prized.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Logic and organization: While some plot detail can illuminate your argument, you want to avoid retelling the story. Each paragraph should be relevant to your main argument; sub-arguments should not be repeated. Think of your paper as a place to prove your argument, and organize your evidence so that it will be most convincing!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Evidence:&nbsp; Good readings usually zoom in on specific passages, drawing conclusions from close reading.&nbsp; You must use quotations from the text your paper discusses, taking care that your quotes support the points that you are making. Plot summary is not evidence!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Tone:&nbsp; While your writing should be more exact and formal than in-class conversations, there is no need for stilted, bombastic prose. A clear, accessible style generally yields a stronger essay than a style dependent on unwieldy sentences and pedantic language. I think it is perfectly acceptable to use the first-person, occasional contractions, and your own voice. Do make sure that this comfortable writing still makes intelligent points and moves beyond opinion into ANALYSIS!&nbsp; Writing that does not strive for a scholarly tone often leaves too much up to the reader to figure out; recall that your job here is to COMMUNICATE ideas!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; line-height: 1.38; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">If you want to write about a topic not listed below please email me about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><br style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ESSAY&nbsp; Papers should be 8 pages.
