“Analyzing Society Through the Lens of Fahrenheit 451: Exploring Creative and Traditional Approaches to Analytical Writing”
For our final major project this semester, we will be using the novel, Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury as a backdrop to analyze current issues in society. In this project, everyone is expected to write about 7-10 pages of analytical writing; however, each student has the option to develop the prompt.
As a class, we will develop and explore possible topics for this paper, so stay tuned!
If you would like to continue developing your research writing skills, a traditional research paper is still an option (similar to Composition 2).
If you would like to work in a more creative realm, some other options include but are not limited to:
A series of op-eds for a major media publication (like the LA Times)
A series of formal persuasive letters to a politician or other leader
A creation and analysis of propaganda
A continuing chapter for Fahrenheit 451 with an accompanying analysis
A rhetorical analysis of a series of texts
A website, blog, or other publish online source with analytical writing about your topic
A work of satire with accompanying analysis / explanation of your intentions -
Title: “The Power of Personal Experience: A Comparative Analysis of Heschel’s “Salvation” and Hughes’ “Salvation”
rewrite my reasearch paper taking into account my teachers sugestions.
“Good start. There is no comma in the date on the top your first page. Also, your first paragraph is confusing, because you are talking about Abraham Heschel’s “Salvation,” instead of Langston Hughes’ “Salvation.” Plus your thesis is confusing. I would rewrite your introduction. You are including outside sources throughout your draft. You need to state your points and ideas, then you use the supporting sources to back up your own ideas instead of just summarizing the sources throughout your paper.” -
“Intersections of Gender and Identity in Cristina Garcia’s Dreaming in Cuban”
Lit 275-Essay 4
Throughout the novel, we see the interconnected lives of Cuban-American women that span generations. Throughout their stories, we learn of the sociopolitical, economic, cultural, and religious influences that act upon them. At times, these forces become tools of empowerment while, at other moments, they threaten the individual agency of the women.
For this essay, you will make an argument about how Garcia’s novel illustrates the ways gender is influenced by other sociocultural factors such as race, politics, class, religion, and/or sexuality. Your thesis should give an answer to the the following: What do we learn about intersectionality through the del Pino family? How do the form, themes/motifs, and other literary features of the novel work to articulate this understanding?
To enhance your reading, you will need to rely on close reading of the novel as well as secondary critical research. You must effectively tie in at least 1 of the critical readings provided as well as 2 additional peer-reviewed outside source to meet the minimum requirements. There should be a
clear and substantiative connection between the outside material and primary text. Essays that simply draw in an outside quote but do not articulate its significance within the context of the overall argument will not score highly.
Overall, we should leave with a clear sense of the novel’s importance with respect to gender intersectionality. It is one thing to point out the ways gender is present in the novel. However, we want to go further and state why these representations of gender are significant—we should make a case for what the novel and secondary sources teach rather than show.
Requirements:
At least 1,250-1,500 words excluding the works cited page
Use and appropriate citation of at least 1 of the two journal articles provided as well as 2 peer-reviewed outside sources, for a total of at least 3 peer reviewed outside sources.
Completion and Submission of essay rough draft
Submission to Canvas by the due date listed in the course calendar
Successful essays will:
Have a clear thesis that makes an argumentative point about gender, intersectionality and Latinx identity as presented in the text(s)
Identify and elaborate upon the specific literary devices and genres used by the author
Incorporate and closely read textual evidence beyond summarizing
Effectively draw in outside research to further the textual argument
Adhere to MLA standards and have minimal spelling/grammatical errors
Less successful essays will:
Lack a clear thesis or state facts about the text
Not refer to any literary devices or terminology
Not include sufficient textual evidence to justify points
Not include outside research or merely place outside quotes without tying them to a specific point
Include many grammatical and spelling errors that disrupt the argument -
