Further Information
A literary critical analysis explains a work of fiction, poetry or drama by means of interpretations. The goal of a literary analysis (as with any other analysis) is to broaden and deepen your understanding of a work of literature. Interpretations are developed by an in-depth examination of a text. An interpretation often will be the thesis of your paper. To help you organize your paper, please review the Elements of Fiction and Poetry powerpoint lectures, as well as reading Chapter 28 in your online textbook.
To approach this assignment, focus on the core cultural themes of the course: gender, racism, multicultural identity, etc. and other areas of cultural context. For example, in looking at a poem by one of the poets, you could ask: How does the poem you are looking at relate to the historical context in which it was written? For example, what’s the cultural significance of one of the writer’s main themes? These questions may take you out of the literature section of your library altogether and involve finding out about philosophy, history, religion, economics, music, or the visual arts. Include enough relevant biographical information about the writer to create a context for your analysis. For more information about writing literary analyses, see the Writing About Literature section of your textbook.
Length: The length of the paper is between 4-6 pages (1000-1500 word), double-spaced, MLA formatted throughout.
