You will be writing a literary analysis essay, so follow the guidelines in the pdf, “How to Write Literary Analysis Essays” and the rubric for ENG 201 essays. For this essay, your main goal is to show where you see the stages of the heroine’s journey arc as developed by Victoria Lynn Schmidt in Radium Girls. Review Schmidt’s ideas here: https://heroinejourneys.com/heroine-journey-ii/. As you review them, try to match the stages to the plot and characters in the play. Choose 3 of these stages to write about, most likely from the beginning, middle and end of the play. This is Topic #1. If you prefer to do a more traditional analysis of the play, then you can do Topic #2. There is NO library research required for this essay! Just use the sources provided in the Weeks 13-16 folder and the Heroine Journeys Project website.
Topic #2: Usually when you write about plays/drama, you discuss its setting, characters, structure/plot, theme, and use of dramatic devices such as dramatic irony. For this essay, your goal is to provide literary analysis of one of these elements. You must use literary terms as shown in the guides below. Some possible topics to write about:
Grace’s character development from the beginning of the play to the end
The role of minor characters
The plot’s conflict, climax and resolution
The working-class speech (dialect) spoken by most of the factory girls
The setting of the factory
Characters in terms of the two sides of the court case
Here are two guides to writing about drama:

INSTRUCTIONS
Using Charlotte Perkins Gillman’s The Yellow Wallpaper or W.E.B. Dubois’ The Comet, in conjunction with Dubois’ concept of Double Consciousness, please write a 750-1000 word scholarly/expository essay addressing one of the following inquiries:
Inquiry I: If the Duboisian concept of Double Consciousness is comprised of “always looking at one’s self through the eyes of others, of measuring one’s soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity,” of living in “a world that yields [ ] no true self-consciousness,” where and how, then, is this manifest in Charlotte Perkins Gillman’s The Yellow Wallpaper?
Inquiry II: (Again) If the Duboisan concept of Double Consciousness is defined as a state of being wherein one is “born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this American world,” and as “a peculiar sensation… [and a] sense of always looking at one’s self through the eyes of others, of measuring one’s soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity,” as living in a world wherein “one ever feels [their] twoness” a world where in a person is defined as both “an American, a Negro,” in possession of “two souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled strivings; two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strength alone keeps it from being torn asunder” – where and how is this manifest in Dubois’ short story, The Comet? 
Inquiry III: Does the application of W.E.B. Dubois’ concept of Double Consciousness beyond the scope of its original application negate either its poignancy or the state of being it was originally intended to describe? 
Requirements: Your work should include the following:
A minimum of two and a maximum of four citations from your primary text(s);
A decisive and definitive answer to the assignment’s primary query;
Your work should adhere to all MLA citation and reference protocols, including proper in-text citation and works cited guidelines. If you are unsure of how to properly cite the texts you are working with, please use the following link for reference: Purdue OWL

If you would like, you can use this quote :
‘After the Egyptian and Indian, the Greek and Roman, the Teuton and Mongolian, the Negro is a sort of seventh son, born with a veil, and gifted with second-sight in this American world,—a world which yields him no true self-consciousness, but only lets him see himself through the revelation of the other world. It is a peculiar sensation, this double-consciousness, this sense of always looking at one’s self through the eyes of others, of measuring one’s soul by the tape of a world that looks on in amused contempt and pity. One ever feels his twoness,—an American, a Negro; two souls, two thoughts, two unreconciled strivings; two warring ideals in one dark body, whose dogged strength alone keeps it from being torn asunder.’
