-Write a thematic analysis providing an independent, interpretive close reading of a test and smoothly intergrate
some of the thoughts of other credible, peer-reviewed, scholarly, professional literary analysts into your work to help make your case. You may use these integrated quotes or paraphrases to help support or illustrate your claims, or in some cases you may disagree with and argue against them, but the combination of 1) your own analytical and interpretive ideas, 2) quotes from and specific references to the text you’re analyzing, and 3) the perspectives from your secondary sources will work to develop and ultimately prove your thesis.

The essay will be centered on your own interpretive/analytic/argumentative claim (your thesis) regarding a text assigned in the class. The secondary sources must be credible, professional analytical articles found in scholarly journals or other reputable sources.

Relevant author interviews or biographies, historical articles relevant to the era of the writing or setting of the work, or other professional articles related to the subject matter may also be acceptable for this assignment. If you choose a source of that nature, be sure to use any quotes or info from the source to help you advance your thesis, and not simply to offer additional info that is not necessarily directly related to the actions and elements of the text. You may also want to check with me about your sources if you have any questions about the credibility or usability of any of your research findings.

Some unacceptable sources:

Reviews
Articles from The Explicator
Plot summaries or articles that are merely plot summaries
Personal blogs or websites
Student-helper websites such as eNotes, Cliffs Notes, Spark Notes, Shmoop, Grade Saver, etc.
The focus of your thesis and analysis will come from you, but you must also demonstrate that you have engaged with other critics’ ideas regarding the text you have chosen to analyze. Your essay will be structured around your main points, but occasionally integrating and/or acknowledging related research of others will enhance your own work and show that you have become familiar with the field of literary scholarship as it relates to your particular subject.

Remember that your promary objective in a paper like this is to say something insightful and worthwhile about the text that your reader may not have considered. You want to open your readers’ eye to a way of under standing the text that sheds light on both the text in general and, in a larger sense, the human experience.
