Your essay must be at 750-1500 words, You must support your argument by citing passages from the assigned readings. These are the readings listed on the web site, not the shorter stories I pass out in class. Papers must be word-processed, appropriately formatted (pages numbered, etc) and contain appropriate citations (footnotes or endnotes) and a bibliography. You may also cite additional works including other stories or criticism, as long as the criticism comes from a scholarly journal – I'm willing to accept factual information from Wikipedia (though not someone's opinion stuck in Wikipedia!). I'm also happy to talk to you about your papers beforehand if you want to see if you're on the right track....
