Research
Essay
For
this
assignment,
you
will
write
a
literary
analysis
research
paper.
This
is
not
all
that
different
from
the
response
papers
that
you
have
constructed
for
essay
#1
and
#2.
The
major
difference
with
the
research
paper
is
that
it
must
contain
outside
research.

-‐Deciding
on
a
topic-‐
To
decide
your
topic,
you
must
first
select
the
literary
text
you
wish
to
analyze
in
your
research
paper.
You
may
chose
from
any
of
the
texts
found
in
our
textbook.
The
only
restriction
is
that
you
may
not
choose
the
same
text
that
you
selected
for
paper
#1
or
#2.
I
would
also
strongly
suggest
staying
away
from
poetry
as
it
is
hard
to
analyze
to
the
length
of
the
requirements
for
this
paper.
(On
the
back
I
have
included
a
list
of
works
that
I
would
suggest.
These
are
pieces
for
which
I
know
you
will
be
able
to
find
adequate
research.)
Once
you
have
selected
your
text,
you
must
decide
what
literary
element
you
wish
to
analyze
in
your
research
paper.
You
may
again
chose
from
any
of
the
elements
that
we
have
discussed
in
class
or
that
can
be
found
in
your
book.
(See
back
for
examples!)
Conducting
Research-
For
a
literary
analyze,
your
sources
should
be
the
primary
text
(the
text
that
you
are
analyzing)
and
secondary
sources
(articles,
essays,
papers,
etc.
in
which
someone
else
has
analyzed
that
same
text
and
addressed
the
same
literary
device
that
you
are
trying
to
analyze).
Developing
a
Thesis-‐
Once
you
have
chosen
your
topic,
conduct
your
research
and
evaluate
your
sources
and
information.
From
this,
you
should
be
able
to
write
a
clear,
concise
thesis
statement.
Here
is
an
example
of
a
good
thesis
statement:
In
Nathaniel
Hawthorne’s
The
Minister’s
Black
Veil,
the
veil
that
Mr.
Hooper
wears
becomes
a
symbol
of
human
sin.
