/in /by

The prospectus should include the following:

1. A list of the three primary texts you’re going to analyze and which of the three topics you’re going to tackle in the paper.

2. A working thesis for the paper that clearly sets out your argument and interpretation of the three works. This thesis may change as you finish the paper,but I want to see your direction and how you’re going to approach your topic.

3. Annotations for four potential sources drawn from the MLA Bibliography.Each annotation should include the full MLA-style bibliographic information and a paragraph of several sentences that includes a summary of the source and a sense of how it might be useful for your paper.

See attached assignment for full details.
