The Renaissance |Get Solution

Course: The Renaissance and Early Seventeenth Century British Literature 8 pages (double spaced) with 5 (minimum) sources.  ONLY USE SCHOLARLY ARTICLES.  Topic of Paper:  Robert Herrick and the Ambiguities of Gender Instructions from Professor: Beyond the obvious—i.e., a researched, creative, and insightful argument about the chosen text(s)—be sure to include the following:                                     *a clearly stated thesis somewhere near the beginning of the essay                         *proper format, including a Works Cited page in MLA *when dealing with poetry, please use line breaks, and cite by line number not page                                     *talk about texts in the present tense!                                     *remember: sentences containing quotations should remain grammatically correct! *an account of the literary-critical context. Who else is talking about this subject and how have they contributed to your own research or framed the question that you are now addressing?  This is where I expect you to draw on your critical narrative. *this requires an attempted interaction with larger critical arguments rather than just a selected sentence or two from their work.  *a consideration of the implications of your argument (this can be very brief, and it is often a solid way to conclude an academic essay)   By the way, avoid this construction:                         “According to critic [author] in his/her essay, [long extended title], [author] states…” I cannot tell you how many times I read that type of thing in the critical narrative.  A better way to put it:                         “[Author] states…” I can always find the name of the essay on the Works Cited page.   Otherwise, please strive for clear, precise, and concise prose!  A great way to make sure that you’re writing like a regular human is to read your own essay aloud to yourself; does it sound like something someone might actually say?  Can you follow it?
