Instruction

So far this term, we have looked at a number of different authors and a smattering of their work. We have also touched upon a number of points of interest and some potential avenues of analysis for the works. For this project, choose one of the pieces of literature on the reading list (the entire list is fair game). Find some salient points of interest hidden within it and explicate, elaborate, discuss, analyze, or criticize to your heart’s content.Do not tell your reader what it says: Tell your reader what it all means.This is the short paper –about four pages long –the one that requires at least a couple of sources cited within it, in MLA format of course (very, very important). You must include the required works cited page. Things to Keep in Mind When Writing MLA Papers 1.Always remain objective and write in third person,which means avoiding first or second person throughout the paper. Unless you are writing a personal narrative, first person is inappropriate. Unless you are writing a process analysis where you are giving directions, second person is inappropriate. The only appropriate time to use either first or second person is in a citation or quotation. 2.Always avoid using contractions, unless they appear in citations. 3.Avoid using slang, “text-speak,” or informal tone unless it appears in a citation. 4.Refer to authors by full name, surname, or pronoun. For example:In “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry,” Walt Whitman describes the people he sees on the ferry. –or --In “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry,” Whitman describes the people he sees on the ferry. –or –When Whitman wrote“Crossing Brooklyn Ferry,” he described the people. Do not use first names –Walt wrote “Crossing Brooklyn Ferry.” 5.Periods and commas always go inside of closing quotation marks: “It took four horses to draw the wagon.”OR “It took four horses to draw the wagon,” but they made it home in time. 6.Titles of books are always set in Italic type. Titles of short stories and poems are always enclosed in quotation marks. 7.The Works Cited page is entitled Works Cited. It is not called “References,” “Citations Page,” “Bibliography,” or anything else besides Works Cited. 8.All the text in an MLA paper is double-spaced. There is a right-justified header that includes only your last name and the page number. Every essay should have an original title. ‘Essay Number One,’ ‘Analytical Essay,’ ‘Comparison/Contrast,’ or similar attempts are not considered to be original titles.
