Complete a "close reading" and critical analysis of a single poem from our
class readings or from the list provided.
Be sure to establish a clear thesis or argument in your paper--something
about the poem. (We will work on this in class. See Thesis Worksheet
Blank to the left.)
Be sure to provide examples or quotations of specific lines from the poem to
support your points.
Complete some additional outside research--at least 3 additional sources:
journal articles, books, and a literary glossary.
More later.
