First, it must deal with at least two course texts in roughly equal lengths. The best way to do this is to compare and contrast two texts over one concept (home, violence, freedom, etc.)
*Second, it must have a thesis. A thesis is a claim that requires justification. You are going to use the pages allotted to justify the claim you make at the beginning. So, something like “Homer and Thoreau have different ideas about violence” is not really a thesis. It’s just a statement. Something like: “Thoreau uses relationships between animals to lampoon the celebrated violence of the Iliad” is a thesis, because it has to be proven through the text.
The paper, which must be in Times New Roman font, 12-point, double-spaced, and without cover page, will be submitted via Canvas, by the final class period of the semester. The paper must be formatted correctly, free of spelling and punctuation mistakes, and grammatically correct.
*Your paper must have a thesis. A thesis is a claim that requires textual justification. Your paper is an effort to prove an argument using distilled examples from course texts. The presence of a thesis is worth 5% of the total paper grade.
*Your paper must be structurally correct and follow all of the rules of paper-writing (spelling, punctuation, sourcing, et cetera). The structure of the paper is worth 10% of the overall grade.
*Your paper must present cogent arguments from at least two-course texts. You should try to make the paper into a conversation between the texts, aiming to give each author (roughly) equal space.
*You do not need to use outside sources; in fact, I would caution against using them. That said, anything you use to develop your argument or understanding of a text must be cited. Failure to cite material will lead to a failing grade. No exceptions.
