Write a research paper of AT LEAST five pages. Choose a short story by an author in our anthology that we are not already studying in this course (in other words, somebody NOT on the syllabus) and choose some element of fictionplot, characters, point of view, setting, or styleabout which to write your paper. Please note: for this assignment, we will not be discussing themes. Focus on just one or two of these fiction elements, develop a thesis, and write a researched argumentative paper. Biographical information about the author should ONLY be provided if it is relevant to the thesis of the essayand even in this case, biographical information should be brief. Make sure that your thesis argues a point and that you support that point throughout the paper. Do not write a book report or simply recap the textargue a point. Assume that your audience has read the story.
Your essay MUST be in MLA format. For your assistance, this instruction sheet follows MLA style (e.g., 1-inch margins, no title page). You must use the font Times New Roman, 12 pt, double-spacedagain, as you see here. If you have questions about format, ASK. You may use as many research sources as you feel are necessary, but you must use AT LEAST three critical sources that are NOT internet websites or encyclopedias. These should be books or periodical articles that discuss the main work you are studying (in other words, in addition to your primary text). You may use any of the essays in our anthology IN ADDITION TO your three outside critical sources. You MUST cite all of your sources using MLA style (parenthetical is preferred); attach a Works Cited list. If you are unclear on any aspect of citing sources, please ASK. If you fail to cite properly within the body of your essayin other words, if you plagiarizeyou will not pass.
