Linguistics - English
Final paper
In this course we have explored the many meaningswhich
literature may have for us as well as literary themes,
elements, and techniques common to the forms of the short
story, poetry, and drama. In class discussions and written
assignments, you have also had opportunitiesto reflect on
your individualfeelings, responses, and ideas abouta
number of literary works.
The FinalPaper is intendedas an exercise in bringing
together, or synthesizing, yourreflections on literature and
your understandingsof the course material. Thisis a
comparative paper which analyzes two to three literary
works from the course readingswhich share a common
theme. The paper should be organized by a thesis
(argument), which is the main point of the entire essay.
When developinga thesis for a comparative paper, consider
how a comparison of the works provides deeper insight into
the topic of your paper. In other words, think about why you
have chosen to look at these particularworks in relation to
one another. In your analysis, also consider the relationships
among content, form, and style. For example, how are the
ways in which themes and ideas are represented and
communicated relevant to your reading experience and to
the work as a whole?
You may choose from any of the topics and works listed at
the end of this assignment description. (Please note that
many of the listed themes relate to more than three works –
please limit yourself to only two to three of the texts. Doing
so will allowyou to give ample attention to each literary
work you are analyzing.) Though the possible topics for the
assignment are given below, what you say about the
significance of the theme is up to you.
The FinalPaper must be eight to ten pages long and include
an originaltitle, an introductionwith a thesis statement,
supporting paragraphs, and a conclusion. Remember that the
thesis statement should answer the question “so what?”
(What is important aboutthe argument you are making?
What meaning or valuemight it have to your reader and/or
to society?) Also, be sure that your argument is supported by
textual detailsand analysis.You may find it useful as you
begin your analysisto review the literary concepts and
analyticalapproachescovered in class.
You may choose from the following topics:
The representation of race/ethnicity (Gordimer’s "Country
Lovers," Walker’s "The Welcome Table," Smith’s "What It’s
Like to Be a Black Girl," Morales’s"Childof the Americas")
The representation of gender roles and/ormarriage
(Thurber’s "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," Bernard’s I’m
Going, Chopin’s"The Story of an Hour," de Mauppassant’s
"The Necklace," Chechov’sThe Proposal, Gordimer’s "The
Country Lovers")
Creativity and the creative process (Neruda’sPoetry,
Ferlinghetti’s“Constantly Risking Absurdity,” Collins’“You,
Reader”)
The representation of death and impermanence (Updike’s
"Dog’s Death," Rhys’s "I Used to Live Here Once," Dubus’s "A
Father’s Story," Thomas’s “Do Not Go Gentle into that Good
Night,” Frost’s “NothingGold Can Stay,” Tennyson’s“In
Memoriam,” Dickinson’s“Because I Could Not Stop for
Death”)
The representation of nature (Oliver’s “Wild Geese,” Arnold’s
“Dover Beach,” Tennyson’s“The Oak,” Frost’s “The Path Not
Taken”)
The symbolism of the journey (Frost’s “The Path Not Taken,”
Welty’s "A Worn Path," Rhys’s "I Used to Live Here Once")
In additionto the course text, you must use at least five
