GRADING: Your performance on this assignment will be evaluated based on the following criteria: <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Argument: IT IS CRUCIAL that you develop an argumentative thesis\u2014this is a point you can support that is not obvious or just about the plot. Consider questions that ask \u201chow\u201d or \u201cwhy\u201d rather than \u201cwhat?\u201d Without a clear thesis, you may need to speculate, to ignore evidence, or to make claims you cannot support. Try to avoid rehashing class discussion; original thought is prized. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Logic and organization: While some plot detail can illuminate your argument, you want to avoid retelling the story. Each paragraph should be relevant to your main argument; sub- arguments should not be repeated. Think of your paper as a place to prove your argument, and organize your evidence so that it will be most convincing! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Evidence: Good readings usually zoom in on specific passages, drawing conclusions from close reading. You <\/span><\/span>must <\/span><\/span><\/b>use quotations from the text your paper discusses, taking care that your quotes support the points that you are making. Plot summary is not evidence! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7       <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>Tone: While your writing should be more exact and formal than in-class conversations, there is no need for stilted, bombastic prose. A clear, accessible style generally yields a stronger essay than a style dependent on unwieldy sentences and pedantic language. I think it is perfectly acceptable to use the first-person, occasional contractions, and your own voice. Do make sure that this comfortable writing still makes intelligent points and moves beyond opinion into ANALYSIS! Writing that does not strive for a scholarly tone often leaves too much up to the reader to figure out; recall that your job here is to COMMUNICATE ideas! <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
