ENG 102 Paper 2 30% of your final grade 6-7 pages This paper will require you to examine one of the assigned poetry readings from a biographical critical perspective. A biographical critical analysis uses facts from a writers life to analyze their work; by doing so, we can start to examine the relationships between truth and fiction, personal experience and creative expression, and how life is transformed into literature. Youll be required to find at least four sources, either critical essays or author interviews, to learn more about the writer and apply the information to your analysis. In other words, youll be taking what you learn about the writer where they grew up, what experiences theyve shared in the interview, what pleasures or traumas theyve experienced, who/what has influenced them and use those specifics in analyzing the poem youve chosen. So for example, if you were going to analyze South Central Los Angeles Death Trip 1982 and found an interview with Wanda Coleman where she speaks of an unpleasant encounter with the police, or the difficulties in coming to terms with racial disparities in America, or thoughts on the writing of poetry in general, you would use any or all of these to examine points in the poem where she has taken real-life events and utilized them in her writing. Ill also give you the option of working on a poem that hasnt been assigned for class, but if you decide to do that, I must approve the poem. I will be reviewing how to structure the paper, utilize sources, and complete this assignment in class. Requirements The paper must be 6-7 pages in length. You must have two direct quotes from the sources in each of your body paragraphs. You are required to use MLA formatting, which means that you must use in-text citations and have a Works Cited page. Do not write this in the first person, i.e., no I this is not a personal essay, nor is it about your feelings. This assignment is an objective, academic analysis. Due dates: Topic and list of sources in MLA format due Wednesday, January 21 (bring one printed copy to class) Rough draft due Wednesday, January 28 (bring two copies to class) Final draft due Wednesday, February 4 (bring one copy to class) Reminder: I do not accept late submissions.
