APCS English Dept

TO: English 12 and UALR World Literature students and parents

FROM: William Jones, Instructor

RE: Term paper

The World Literature term paper will be due on May 5, 2010. Students are required to write a critical paper of eight to ten pages in length, not counting the title page and bibliography. The MLA style is required.

At least four works of criticism must be cited and incorporated in the argument of the paper for English 12 students and five for UALR concurrent-credit students. The focus of the paper should be on one author and one work (e.g., Voltaire's Candide) or, in the case of a poet or short-story writer, one author and a manageable number of shorter works (e.g., John Donne's "Holy Sonnets"). Further, the paper should deal with a single thematic issue, such as "Irony in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice" or "The Concept of Law in Franz Kafka's The Trial."

The most convenient way to find critical sources is through the use of Norton Critical Editions—at least, of course, for those works included in the series. The following are titles currently available in the series that may be used in the World Literature course. It would be well worth investing in the purchase of one of these books, which can be ordered through Amazon.com or from the publisher, W.W. Norton.
