If your assignment is of quality work, you can increase ONE of your essay grades up to a full letter grade. (i.e. if your Poetry Analysis paper receives a B-, this could change it to an A-). If your assignment is not of quality work, it will not be graded.

    • Attend a Play – The Clean House by Sarah Ruhl
      • When: Fri 7/5, Sat 7/6 at 7:30 PM

      • Website: http://www.poets.org/viewevent.php/prmEventID/12248

    In order to write a successful analysis, you will want to follow these steps:

    1. Decide which event to attend ahead of time and plan how you will get there.
    2. Look over any materials that will give you sufficient context when attending the event. For example, if you are attending the play, read a summary or better yet, glance through the script.
    3. Your analysis should include the following information:
    • Relevant background on the event (author, context, summary of the plot, etc.)
    • Summary of the event (what happened, who attended, where it took place, etc.)
    • Personal response to the event (connections to course material or health sciences, what you liked/didn’t like, what you learned, etc.)
    1. Remember that this is NOT an essay or analysis. Your purpose is to prepare for, attend, and critique an event. You do not need to write in essay format, but be sure that you are using proper English paragraphing and that your ideas are fully developed with evidence.

    Audience: Write for an audience of your academic peers (classmates) and professor. You can assume that your audience did not read any of the materials or attend the event.

    Citation: At the end of your paper, include a “Works Cited” page in which you provide a complete citation any sources that you used (i.e. sources about the author’s life or historic context). Also include in-text citations of sources.

    Format: Your analysis should be at least 2 pages long, double-spaced, size 12 font, with 1 inch margins. Use an “academic” font, such as Arial, Cambria, Calibri, or Times New Roman.

  • Comparison and contrasting of “I loved you first” by Christina Rossetti to “I am not yours” by Sara Teasdale

    $20.00

    “I Loved You First”(Christina Rossetti) and “I Am Not Yours” (Sara Teasdale) Compare and contrast the Poems

    Eng 102: Compare and Contrast Essay (4-5 pages)

    For this assignment, you are to compare and contrast two of the poems I have listed below. They are all available on Blackboard. When you choose one of the underlined poems, you must pair it with one of the poems indicated. I have paired them in ways that should place them in conversation with each other. How do the two poems deal with similar problems, address similar themes, and work through similar tensions? How are their forms similar or different, and how do those forms reflect back on poems’ different effects and meanings? You may compare tone, diction, point of view, use (or avoidance) of figurative language, rhyme, irony, paradox, image, symbol, rhythm, and other elements of poetry (As in the earlier essays, you do not have to address all these elements—just focus on the one or the few that are relevant). When writing a compare and contrast essay, you must do more than just list similarities and differences: you must have a basis for the comparison and your analysis should reveal something about the two poems and their relationship.

    As in previous assignments, your essay should have a thesis that is focused, revealing, and debatable. You must use specific language from the poems to support your thesis. After you choose your poems, you should look at the Questions for Responsive Reading and Writing in the Bedford anthology (pp. 592-593), especially questions 1-19. They should help you consider the right basis for comparison and contrast.

    “Since Feeling is First” (E.E. Cummings) and

    “Aprhodisia” (Richard Hoffman)

                “Language” (Nizar Qabbani)

    “Sex Without Love” (Sharon Olds) and

                “I Being Born a Woman and Distressed” (Edna St. Vincent Millay)

                “may I feel said he” (E.E. Cummings)

                “she being Brand” (E.E. Cummings)

    “Love Poem” (Dora Malech) and

                “Whoever hath her wish, thou hast thy ‘Will’” (William Shakespeare)

    “Heart to Heart” (Rita Dove) and

                “Never Give all the Heart” (W. B. Yeats)

                “I am Not Yours” (Sara Teasdale)

    “Rime Riche” (Monica Ferrell)

                “I Crave Your Mouth, Your Voice, Your Hair” (Pablo Neruda)

                “I am Not Yours” (Sara Teasdale)

    “I Loved You First” (Christina Rossetti) and “I Am Not Yours” (Sara Teasdale)

    $2.00

    Paper 3: Argumentative Essay

    An argumentative essay is one that convinces readers to see things from the author’s point of view. At the end of your essay, you want your audience to agree with your claim, or argument. A good argumentative essay is the result of the author making a claim and supporting this claim with strong evidence. A good argumentative essay also acknowledges the counterarguments to the author’s claim, or the reasons why some people may not agree with the argument that is being made.

    Pre-Writing:

    1. First, you need to choose a topic that you feel strongly about. I am leaving the topic up to you, but please note that there are some topics I do not want you to write about. These include:
    • legalizing marijuana
    • gay marriage
    • abortion
    • gun control
    • changing the drinking age to younger than 21
    • the death penalty
    1. After you have chosen a general topic, try to narrow it down to something specific. Think back to the exercise we did in class to help you do this.
    1. Now write a thesis statement. This should be a 1-3 sentence statement that summarizes your argument.
    1. Once you have a thesis statement, think of the possible counterarguments that exist. Take a piece of paper and make 2 columns. In one column, write down the possible counterarguments that exist against your argument. In the other column, write down your arguments against the counterarguments.

    Writing the Essay:

    Now that you have explored your topic, you can start writing. Make sure your essay fits into the standards we have set for this class (12 pt. TNR font, double spaced, each paragraph indented, 1-inch margins). Your essay needs an introduction and a conclusion.

    Tips:

    • Make sure you use evidence that supports your argument, not just your opinion.
    • Make sure your evidence is logically strong.
    • Make sure your essay follows an order that makes sense.
    • If you are writing about a controversial topic, make sure you are respectful.
    • Make sure each paragraph only contains 1 idea. You can have multiple paragraphs that talk about the same idea.
