This is not a research paper (although you must cite your sources). It is a position paper that takes a distinct interpretive position supported by specific examples from works of art.

Your thoughts should be presented in a clear and organized manner.

You do not need to make a full interpretive or analytical case in support of your position, but rather present the case and then give very specific instances of the interpretation and analysis that would be needed if the position were to be argued fully.

The paper should be at least 8-10 pages, double spaced, 12 point font. I prefer footnotes to endnotes.
