For the Alice Walker research paper, you will do the following:

– Choose two works (short stories, chapter from longer book, or poems) from the same writer. One of these can be the story you used for your fiction essay. “Everyday use by alice walker and ‘Be Nobody’s Darling’ by Alice Walker”

– Decide a theme that you believe is evident in both. 

– Analyze each work to determine how the author’s use of that theme in each work compares to the other. What are the major similarities and/or differences you notice in how the author develops the theme and communicates it?

– Consult outside sources to help develop your argument. These can literary sources about your author’s work or non-literary sources that provide insight into the topics and issues that seem to be relevant within the works you are writing about. 

 

The body of the research paper should be 5 pages, not including the works cited page.
