Question 1. Analyze one of the course readings OR a reading/text of your choice (must be fiction; no non-fiction texts permitted).

Isolate the theme or subject that most interests you. (Sometimes this is the hardest part!)

2. Make an argument.

Your topic should be arguable-in other words, a topic that requires proof because it is not overtly apparent, or is one that reasonable people could disagree about.

2. Have a thesis statement in your introductory paragraph that reveals your topic and your argument.

3. Have well-organized, well-written, thoughtful body paragraphs that develop and support your thesis.

4. Include at least two (2) peer-reviewed, scholarly essays or book chapters that situate your argument: the author either agrees with you in some way, or disagrees with you in some way. You might even be exploring an angle for the very first time.

5. OPTIONAL: Resolve any counter-arguments that arise from the scholarly essays: tell the reader why you are "right," and why Critic X is "wrong."

6. Have a conclusion that sums up your argument and develops your idea, such that readers know how and where your voice fits into the scholarly community about the text(s).

A great conclusion does not summarize and repeat what you have argued throughout the paper. Instead, the conclusion interprets the observations you have stated in the body and thesis. The conclusion shows how your argument has developed throughout your paper and reveals the significance of your topic.
