Topics will be provided (see separate link on the online syllabus, for an ongoing list), but you may devise a topic of your own.  \n2. Your essay should be about 3000 words (that’s equivalent to ten pages double-spaced ) or more, and should be polished stylistically and, of course, correct in terms of grammar, punctuation, citations, and so on. You may use whatever citation method you prefer—i.e., Chicago style (citations as endnotes) or MLA style (citations in text) . See brief explanation of the two styles at the end of this document.  \n3. Turn your paper into me via email [to harveyb@fiu.edu](to harveyb@fiu.edu. Do not provide a cover page)[. Do not provide a cover page](to harveyb@fiu.edu. Do not provide a cover page); put your name/classname/date turned in/your title at the top of the first page. If you do not receive a return email with “Got it”, it means I did not get it. Turn it in single-spaced.  \n4. Be prepared, should it be requested, to supply a draft stage of the essay (if you're wondering; this helps discourage plagiarism!) . This means you must remember to permanently save a draft at some point as you are composing.  \n5. You must integrate at least two pieces of research. You may paraphrase, cite directly via “”s, or cite via footnotes. A (brief) Bibliography is required. This secondary material may be historicalcultural, biographical, and/or critical-interpretive, depending on your argument. It may not come directly from low-level websites (SparkNotes, Wikipedia, etc), but it may come from academic journals that are available through the web (and via the FIU library online journal section)--namely ProjectMuse or JStor articles--or scholarly volumes in the library. If you are not familiar with ProjectMuse or JStor, get in touch with me andI will provide assistance or illustrate during class.  \n6. Do NOT choose a comparative topic (as always, there are exceptions) . (I discourage comparative topics because I want you to look at a particular text, not, as it were, between several texts.)  \n7. You may draw upon my lecture notes/reviews, but do not just parrot my ideas and interpretations. You do not need to cite me (“Prof. Harvey lecture on….”) .  \n8. Refer to the Checklist at the end of this file and please note the Grading Scale. Bottom line: think hard and you get rewarded!  \n9. I will not look at drafts, but I will toss ideas around via email (or conference) .  \n10. Feedback will likely be ample, and I usually encourage revisions (ifa strong effort was made initially) . I probably will send you feedback through email, so please send your paper to me  \nyou submit the paper.  \n11. Finally, pleaszzzeeeee …try to have intellectual fun with your paper. Try to get yourself in the“zone”(the way you appreciate a hobby) in which you take unself-conscious pleasure in analyzing; stop worrying about a grade and getting it right, and so on.  \nTIPS FOR ESSAY WRITING (examples come from a variety of classes):  \n1. IDEAS EMERGE FROM THE TEXT. Abstraction will only carry you so far. It’s best, once you have a glimmer ofan idea, to read and re-read, taking notes, circling important symptomatic passages, and making connections with kindred passages. It is quite possible to have whole paragraphs or more in your essay without reference to a particular passage (i.e. no quote), but such paragraphs can only emerge if you are truly intimate with a text and really focused on it. Look for the little oddities, etc., that lead you to track down patterns of tension in the text. Such doesn't mean that you end up writing about trivia; it just means you avoid starting with abstract themes or issues in your brain-storming/idea-generating process.  \n2. ARGUMENTS ARE NOT DICED-UP THEMES.
