All writers begin a project by brainstorming their ideas and constructing a rough draft. The draft is not a completed paper; rather, it allows writers to explore and develop their ideas. As part of the writing process, it is important for writers to rehearse their materials before those materials “go live.”You will complete a draft this week that will allow you to explore and develop your ideas in preparation for your Literary Analysis, which is due in Week Five. Writing a literary analysis helps us to more readily connect conflicts in literature to our everyday experiences and analyze our own lives as well as human motivations and behavior in general. Finally, it improves our writing and reading skills overall. How to Write the Draft Closely read and take notes on the Literary Analysis assignment found under the Week Five tab. There, you will find complete directions. By this point in the course, you will have discussed two texts from the List of Literary Works, defined at least one conflict, and identified and described at least three literary techniques as specified in the Week Five Literary Analysis prompt.For this assignment, you will construct a working thesis statement that defines in detail the conflict you will analyze, the two texts you will address, and the literary devices you will apply to your final analysis. Review the Writing a Clear and Sound Thesis for a Literary Analysis for support. The body of your paper, which will consist of 800 to 1000 words, is to be presented in four sections as detailed below. Conflict Identify the conflict in the two texts you have chosen. Identify the similarities and differences in the representation of the conflict in the texts. Identify three literary techniques and elements that help represent this conflict. Literary Techniques in [Title of First Chosen Text] Explain where and how you see the three literary techniques at work in your chosen first text. Provide specific examples by quoting, paraphrasing, and/or summarizing. Explain how the literary techniques/examples define and draw out this conflict. Literary Techniques in [Title of Second Chosen Text] Explain where and how you see the three literary techniques at work in your second chosen text. Provide specific examples by quoting, paraphrasing, and/or summarizing. Explain how the literary techniques define and draw out this conflict. Similarities and Differences Compare and contrast the manner in which the texts address the conflict. Explain if they use different and/or similar literary techniques to articulate that conflict. Explain the different and/or similar resolutions of each conflict and how those resolutions were reached. Compile a working references list on a separate page that is formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Keep in mind you are writing a literary analysis so please avoid supplying extensive summaries of the texts. Write a summary only when it aids you in describing a specific conflict and/or application of a literary device.Assignment Requirements Topic: Your draft must contain a working thesis that helps you to explore the topic.
