Use MLA format for this typed paper of 4-5 full text pages.
You must cite lines from the primary source in order to supplement your analysis, to show the reader what you are explaining and to help specifically prove your point.
You must also include a minimum of 3 additional critical sources. A critical source is one that comments upon or analyzes the text, the specific subject of your paper (be careful here!) and/or the writer’s techniques used in the text.
Include a formal outline and works cited page. Keep citations to a minimum—15% of your whole paper. The paper must remain yours, with your writing dominating the discussion—in third person (this is not a personal response essay).
- DO NOT summarize the plot of the piece. You can assume that your readers are already familiar with the text you chose. Summary should only be used BRIEFLY in the introduction as a way to remind the reader of the text(s). Save the rest of the paper for analysis.
- DO NOT give biographical information about the author.
- The Critical paper will be written in the third person. Yes, you are forming an opinion of the text you read, but you will present that opinion in terms of statements of fact, not prefaced by “I think”, “I believe”, or any other first-person statements. You are the authority in your own analysis, so simply state your analysis.
