Analysis is the most important part of this, and
should be woven in with the summary of the sources. In other words, whenever
you summarize, you should also be making an argument for why the source in
question is important with only minimal summary.
2)
You will be expected to use at least 2 sources
other than The Penelopiad that
you have read from class to support your argument.
a.
The secondary essays in your collection of text
may be used, but do not count towards the sources
b.
All sources should be cited in parentheses with
author’s last name and page number. If there is no author, the title is fine.
If there are no page numbers, provide any distinction there is (ex: part, book,
etc.). If there are no distinctions, you can just put author’s name or title.
3)
All margins should be 1”
4)
Text should be 12 point font, double spaced,
with standard spacing between punctuation, etc.

5)
Paper should be 3-4 pages long
6)
No bibliography or works cited is needed.
7)
I will review outlines, or rough drafts, for
