Compose an argumentative
research paper about ‘Diving in the Wreck” by Adrienne Rich (Page 569); construct an
interpretive reading of the text based on your own interests and concerns. By
“argumentative,” I mean that you will make one unified claim about the author’s
work and back it up with your analysis of her work. This is not a report
or summary. Your research sources should be used to support your idea; you
are not simply telling your reader what other scholars have said.
The paper should be based on critical thinking; understanding of the
historical, cultural, and textual material; the extent and effectiveness of the
research; and a clear presentation of a well-supported, well-documented thesis.
The number of sources: Two scholarly secondary research sources, minimum
(that’s in addition to your “primary” sources—the essays or stories about which
you’re writing). Neither of these may be “free internet” sources, though
you may use internet sources in addition to the two required for the
assignment. “Scholarly” means that the work is addressed to
scholars in the field—for example, a book published by a university, or an
article published by a college or university. The textbook itself cannot
count as one of your scholarly sources, and neither can any standard reference
work (any sort of encyclopedia). You may not use Wikipedia, which does
not meet the standards of academic writing.
The number of pages: 4-5 word-processed, double-spaced, not including the
works cited.
Format: Correct MLA format and documentation.
