Great Works of Literature II

General guidelines:
The paper should be about 2-3 page long .
Avoid extensive summary , generic statements about literature, or the background or biography of the author. I want to see you read and engage with the text directly, not summarize its content or only repeat what we said in class.

This paper can be based entirely on your reading and reflection on the text. However, if you use any source to write your paper, you MUST acknowledge it in the proper way.

The paper does not need to be organized as a very formal essay: you should avoid lengthy introductions and conclusions and use most of the space, instead, for the analysis of your topic. The organization can be somewhat more schematic than a traditional essay.

Topic options:

Pick ONE character in Tartuffe and analyze their role and significance in the play. Make sure you consider not only the plot, but also other aspects: for example, language/style, symbolism, etc.

Pick ONE scene in Tartuffe and analyze its role in the play and how that is established through the use of characters and their interaction, language , structure of the scene.

Pick ONE poem by Blake, Dickinson, the Romantics, OR Baudelaire and write an articulate response to it: what you find interesting, what you think are its main characteristics .

Pick ONE of the short stories we have read by Pushkin OR Tagore and comment on a very specific aspect of the text: the more limited, the better, as it will allow you to look closely at something you can discuss in a few pages. It could be a specific passage, a symbol, a character, its use of language, etc.
