Students are required to think critically about the material and to respond imaginatively, but also in an informed way, to the texts and the stated topics. Work will be evaluated with an expectation of 1) cogent, persuasive argument, based on a solid knowledge and understanding of the texts under discussion; 2) independent critical and textual analysis supported by scholarly research; and 3) clear, correct written expression

While the specific research requirement for this assignment is that you read and make use of a minimum of three refereed scholarly books or articles, you may want to use more. You do not need to employ your secondary sources in a heavy-handed way. You donΒt need to summarize their arguments or ΒreplyΒ to them, and you donΒt need to build your thesis around them. Merely make use of them in whatever way works best for your essay: as supporting argument, as historical context, as evidence, as theoretical method, or as something to argue against. However, your use of research sources should not be so cursory that it is merely for show. Find a balance between paying too little attention to your sources and paying so much that you let your sources displace your own analysis or marginalize your own voice.
