This is a research paper; this means that you will be using both your textbook and two scholarly sourcesfrom SFSCs databases. This paper should be between 750 and 800 words (not including the heading and the works cited page.) In addition, this assignment requires the use of the primary source (the short story or stories on which you choose to write) and two secondary sources (scholarly articles related to literature and literature theory that you get from one of the SFSC databases). Only sources obtained from SFSCs databases will be accepted as secondary sources. In addition, you are required to use summaries, paraphrases, and quotes from both your primary and secondary sources, and you must use parenthetical citations. The paper should follow MLA guidelines and include the appropriate heading (see sample on next page), page numbering, and correct margin and spacing. The paper also must contain a works cited page. Next, your paper should be your analysis of the work(s) you selected. It should be supported by both the primary source and the secondary sources. The secondary sources are journal articles from SFSCs literature databases that give professional critical analysis.
