“The Tell-Tale Heart,” & “The Cask of Amontillado.”
The two selected short stories or primary sources for this essay will be written over are “The Tell-Tale Heart,” & “The Cask of Amontillado.” The literary research paper must be at least 1500-words. Focus on one or more of the following as you analyze the work(s) listed above: theme, plot, setting, characterization, point of view, and/or style. Using the primary sources for illustrative support (about 60% of your documentation) and six or more substantive and reliable critical secondary sources for explanatory support (about 40% of your documentation) of your thesis, develop a critical-analytical essay of about six pages, or 1500 words. In addition, use no sources from Wikipedia, from Gradesaver, or from any source with the word “notes” in it—Cliff Notes, Spark Notes, etc. In your introduction, be sure to include a discussion, with documentation (at least one source) the biographical background and influences of the work(s), as well as your thesis (of course). Follow the MLA style of documentation for your essay using parenthetical citations.
*NOTE
The first citation on page four is incorrect and needs to be written as two different (the primary sources) works cited as selections from an anthology. This puts the total number of used sources at eight. The book title I attempted to cite my primary sources with is “Complete Stories and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe .” The ISBN is 978-0385074070. If correcting this error is not included in purchase that is fine. It was important you had this information at the least.
