Intro to Literature

rough_draft_comments.docxHi Brianna,
Good work on this interesting paper! You should identify the type of conflict within both of these works. I would like to see you draw deeper connections between the two works. What is each author saying, specifically, about this type of conflict? How does the conflict play out similarly and differently between the two works? Explain the meaning of the literary elements within the work and discuss how they relate to the conflict. Compare and discuss each author's use of literary elements. Also, you were supposed to research your selected works in the library and quote scholarly articles to support your analysis and interpretation.
Your introduction should state the literary elements you will discuss. The conclusion should restate your thesis, summarize main points and not introduce new information. Also, state why these two works, and their conflict, are important for people to understand. There are not always transitions between each paragraph. Citations are missing or not formatted properly. Please visit the Ashford Writing Center for help in these areas.
