ENGL 2328 –Writing Assignment
Once again, topic selection is up to you. However, this time, the scope of the project is going to be a bit more pointed than before. As with the first project, everything we have approached thus far this semester is fair game, as is anything we will be reading next week (please use something different than you did for the first paper). What I would like to see this time is a critical comparative analysis in which you look at more than one work and more than one author and comparatively analyze them. More importantly, your points of view have begun to permeate the discussion, giving it a much more relevant and modern scope. (Alice, while in Wonderland, might say, “moderner and modern.”) So that means you have to choose 2 different author and their works, analyze and compare their critical work

This is the long paper –about six to seven pages long –the one that requires at least four sources cited within it, in MLA format of course which means that you must include a works cited page. The works cited page is not one of the six to seven pages of your paper.
Make sure you use credible sources like those found through the library databases. Do not cite Wikipedia, SparkNotes, CliffNotes, 123HelpMe.com, cheattheprof.com, Gradesaver.com, MegaEssays.com, or any other source that subvertsthe research process—substantial grade reductions will occur if you use sources such as those listed above.
