Argumentative essay (3000- 3500 words), due by February 1, 2016 by email
Your final essay should analyze at least one work (novel, non-fiction work, a book of poetry, or at least 3 short stories) and one issue discussed in the lectures. You will be given essay topics to choose from later in the course. The final essay is not just a summary of what was said in the lecture. It should show your own approach to a primary work and bring original observations and/or opinions. It is an argumentative essay, meaning that you are trying to argue a certain point of view which you establish at the start.
***More information about the final essay will be given later, including writing tips.***
Important details:
-The essay should be 3,000-3,500 words.
-You are free to create your own topic based on one or more of the authors discussed in the lectures but you must consult this with me.
