Write an analysis of one of the novels (Silas Marner, Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole
The Picture of Dorian Gray, or Dracula).
Your paper should define a specific theme and present a focused regarding that theme. The more focused your paper is on a specific aspect of the novel, the more in-depth your analysis will be.
At least two secondary sources are required. These can be either academic essays that you find using online databases or secondary texts we have read and discussed in class. But they must be academic sources (not popular press, un-peer reviewed websites or publications). If you are at all unsure about what qualifies as an academic source, please ask.
Your paper will use MLA formatting. This applies to in-text citations, works-cited page, quotation integration, etc. For MLA formatting guidelines, refer to an up-to-date MLA Handbook, or visit Purdue University’s OWL MLA website (google “OWL MLA”).
