Assignment<\/span>:<\/span> <\/span>For this Midterm Essay, please discuss Edward Bulwer-Lytton\u2019s<\/span> <\/span>Paul Clifford<\/span>
and Charles Dickens\u2019s<\/span> <\/span>Oliver Twist<\/span> <\/span>in terms of the role of crime in those texts. What is the<\/span>
role of crime in these two novels, and what sort of similar message in relation to crime<\/span>
might the authors be trying to get across to the reader?<\/span>
Don\u2019t just restate the essay topic or simply answer the essay questions as your central argument\/<\/span>
thesis. Your central argument\/thesis needs to go beyond the essay topic and questions, and you<\/span>
must craft a more specific approach and central argument\/thesis within the more broad essay<\/span>
questions. That central argument\/thesis should also effectively connect the two texts together<\/span>
with the same argument.<\/span> <\/span>Oliver Twist<\/span> <\/span>and<\/span> <\/span>Paul Clifford<\/span> <\/span>are the only sources that can and must be<\/span>
used for this paper. You will need to use an effective amount of direct quotations from those 2<\/span>
texts in order to support the claims that you make in your paper, and they must be cited and<\/span>
documented in correct MLA format. Be sure to be consistent with your use of direct quotations.<\/span>
Any claim that you make about a text needs to be supported with a direct quotation from that<\/span>
text. However, like all papers in this course, this Midterm Essay must be primarily based on your<\/span>
own opinions, ideas, and arguments. And related to that, I don\u2019t want you just regurgitating the<\/span>
issues that we discussed in class. I welcome you to build on the issues that we covered, but be<\/span>
sure that you go far beyond what we discussed in class in terms of this essay and what you<\/span>
discuss in your paper. Please also keep in mind the context and purpose of this assignment. It is<\/span>
not a personal essay, and it is not a critical response paper. That implies that the personal<\/span>
pronouns \u2018I,\u2019 \u2018me,\u2019 etc., will not be used in this essay, as this is more of an academic assignment.<\/span>
Also, be sure to avoid the use of contractions, and use language and academic conventions<\/span>
appropriate for a formal essay. Again, this paper should be based on your own opinions, ideas,<\/span>
and arguments, but those fundamental aspects should be effectively presented within an<\/span>
academic essay<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
