Melville Paper
Your first out-of-class paper of the semester will be over Melville’s short fiction. The topic is up to you…you can do a comparison/contrast of the two stories in terms of theme, narrative voice, prose style, etc., a Freudian analysis of I and My Chimney (Sophie’s World has a good basic discussion of Freud, but you might want to dig a bit deeper), a “historiography” of Bartleby interpretations, or an analysis of one or both stories based on a chapter(s) from HTRLAP. Use MLA format for parenthetical citation and lists of works cited.
I will only collect/grade the final draft of these papers, which are due Friday January 29.
