Essay Requirements
This essay needs to have
A strong, arguable thesis that does not merely re-hash the plot of the text (i.e., you in some way make the topic your own);
Background information on your chosen topic so that your readers are educated on what you are addressing (this will include a brief discussion of your chosen theory, a definition of pertinent terms, and a discussion of why this theory is being used);
Enough arguments (or reasons) to more than adequately support your thesis;
Evidence (specific examples for each point you bring up) to prove your thesis that is properly formatted as a direct quote, paraphrase, or summary and ethically cited;
Explanations of your evidence which show clear, logical connections between your thesis, reasons, and evidence;
One counterargument that is supported by evidence and addressed objectively;
At least two primary and one secondary sources; your secondary source should be scholarly.
And an answer to the question “so what?”—what do your readers gain from reading your essay? why should they care?

All essays must be in proper MLA or APA format (make use of OWL at Purdue if you need help with MLA or APA) and be 2.5-3 pages long. Additionally, all essays need an engaging title (not Essay #1), 1” margins, a works cited page, and be in Times New Roman font size 12.
