Need a Rewrite on short story week 5

Short Paper 2

You will write a short critical essay based on our assigned readings and/or class discussions. This paper will be short (~2-3 pages) but useful for generating ideas about a topic. You should use 12 pt font, Times New Roman, double-spaced, and 1-inch margins. You should also include a works cited page listing the sources you use (even if it is just the primary text). You should follow the traditional essay format (i.e. introduction/body/conclusion). You will need to have a thesis statement and supporting examples and points from the text. Be specific and use quotes and paraphrases from the text(s). It will be a better paper if you go into detail and depth, rather than trying to cover a really big or broad idea and only analyze it superficially. I will give you several topics to choose from for each short paper.

Short Paper #2 Topics:

Choose one reading (from Units 3, 4, or 5) and make a claim for how it both fits within AND challenges a particular genre category.

Compare the novel with one of the other readings from the course. Make a claim about one similarity you notice between the two and explain why it matters. How does reading the two texts together help you to better understand both?

Choose your own topic. If you decide to take this option, you MUST get prior approval of your topic from your instructor.
