Research Proposal\n<\/div>\n
English Composition 102 – 355:102:05\n<\/div>\n
John Aveni: Fall 2022\n<\/div>\n
Research Proposal\n<\/div>\n
The proposal is your first step in writing your final formal papers of the semester. Its function is to\n<\/div>\n
provide space to begin brainstorming and narrowing down your research topic, generate ideas relating\n<\/div>\n
to the research topic and the essays read in class, and formulate questions you may wish to consider\n<\/div>\n
when writing your fourth and fifth papers.\n<\/div>\n
In Paper 4, you will locate relevant scholarship related to the specific theme you have chosen to\n<\/div>\n
analyze in Yezierska, and you will address the relevance of that specific scholarly approach to\n<\/div>\n
Yezierska\u2019s depiction of her theme.\n<\/div>\n
In Paper 5, you will locate relevant primary source documents, which will allow you to develop a\n<\/div>\n
comparative study of a second identity group as it relates to the Jewish Immigrants in Yezierska\u2019s\n<\/div>\n
story. Here, you will assess the relevance of Yezierska\u2019s authorial project to your chosen comparative\n<\/div>\n
identity group as represented by your primary sources.\n<\/div>\n
You may structure your proposal any way you wish, but please make sure you address at the very\n<\/div>\n
least the following:\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 Indicate the theme addressed by Anzia Yezierska that you will be exploring. Be as specific as\n<\/div>\n
possible.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 In which chapters and how does Yezierska present this issue? Summarize this briefly.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 Describe whether\/how Alice Kessler Harris presents this theme in her introduction.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 How does this theme intersect with the issues you\u2019ve explored in your first three papers?\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 Discuss at least two scholarly theoretical sources you will use to analyze Yezierska and your\n<\/div>\n
case studies. At least one of these must be a leading scholar addressing the current or historical\n<\/div>\n
(early 20th century) status of your chosen theme, but you must also use at least one concept\n<\/div>\n
from Omi and Winant or Nagel to complete your analysis.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 For each scholarly source, you should discuss your plans for connective analysis. Specifically\n<\/div>\n
name its relationship to Bread Givers and\/or your other primary sources.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 At this point in your planning, what is your position re: the relevance of your chosen scholarly\n<\/div>\n
arguments to Yezierska\u2019s project?\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 Introduce the two primary sources you plan to use in Paper 5. Most students choose a single\n<\/div>\n
novel, memoir, or short story whose author or protagonist represents a specific immigrant\n<\/div>\n
experience and accompany it with an interview or second work from the same author.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 How focused is your comparative immigrant group? Consider what identity groups are\n<\/div>\n
represented by the primary sources you\u2019ll use in Paper 5 (time period, geographical location,\n<\/div>\n
race, ethnicity, gender, religion, etc.)\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 For each primary source document, you should discuss your plans for connective analysis.\n<\/div>\n
Specifically name its relationship to Bread Givers and\/or your other sources.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 At this point in your planning, what is your position re: the relevance of your chosen comparative\n<\/div>\n
primary sources to Yezierska\u2019s project?\n<\/div>\n

Annotated Bibliography\n<\/div>\n
English Composition 102 – 355:102:05\n<\/div>\n
John Aveni: Fall 2022\n<\/div>\n
The annotated bibliography must include at least seven substantial sources that you plan to use in\n<\/div>\n
your research paper, including Bread Givers and other readings we\u2019ve read for our first three papers.\n<\/div>\n
At least two of your sources should come from your own original research. In addition to Bread\n<\/div>\n
Givers, the following sources should also be included:\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 Omi and Winant, Nagel, Alice Kessler Harris\u2019s introduction to Bread Givers\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 at least two researched scholarly sources, including a book and an article from a peer-reviewed\n<\/div>\n
scholarly journal (these will be secondary sources)\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 two researched case studies (these are primary sources) for Paper 5. Most students Most\n<\/div>\n
students choose a single novel, memoir, or short story whose author or protagonist represents a\n<\/div>\n
specific immigrant experience and accompany it with an interview or second work from the same\n<\/div>\n
author.\n<\/div>\n
Each of the bibliographic entries must have two parts:\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 bibliographic information in MLA style (see Hacker, Eighth edition 139-173).\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 a short (1-3 sentence) summary of the author’s central argument.\n<\/div>\n
For theoretical sources, it is important that you phrase your annotations as summaries of\n<\/div>\n
arguments rather than summaries of information. For case studies, you should be also focus on\n<\/div>\n
the item\u2019s meaning more than the details of the stories told.\n<\/div>\n
\uf0b7 A sentence or two explaining the specific text(s) you will use in analyzing this source in\n<\/div>\n
connectively analyzed body paragraphs. If the source is primary, name the theoretical and\/or\n<\/div>\n
scholarly texts you will use to gain a deeper understanding of its language. If the source is\n<\/div>\n
secondary, name the primary sources you will use to gauge the effectiveness of its concepts and\n<\/div>\n
arguments. You MUST say how each source relates to your thesis question and to the\n<\/div>\n
other sources you will explore.\n<\/div>\n
When you are writing, be sure to acknowledge the author\u2019s argument, using phrases like, “According to\n<\/div>\n
so-and-so…,”and “So-and-so argues that…” Sometimes your sources will present themselves as\n<\/div>\n
informative or objective rather than argumentative, but this just means that you will have to read more\n<\/div>\n
closely-read “between the lines”-in order to ascertain where the author is coming from and what his or\n<\/div>\n
her perspective on the topic is. Feel free to use direct quotations in your summaries.\n<\/div>\n
Remember: A bibliography does NOT take the place of a works cited list. The Works you cite are only\n<\/div>\n
part of your research. Your bibliography is everything you\u2019ve obtained and read, whether or not you\u2019ve\n<\/div>\n
used it in your current draft. As such, your bibliography may contain MORE sources than your works\n<\/div>\n
cited list. A copy of this bibliography will be due with both drafts of the proposal and all drafts you\n<\/div>\n
submit of your fifth paper. NO EXCEPTIONS.\n<\/div>\n

2nd draft due: Thursday, November 9, 2022. Name it yourlastname-AB-D2 and upload to Canvas.\n<\/div>\n
