English Paper
TOPIC: Discuss the ways in which Cory Doctorow’s novel Little Brother blends the social-political (such as loss of freedoms and privacy in the name of security) with the personal–the desires, issues, anxieties, and struggles with boundaries that young adults typically face in the real world (and thus parallel what young readers face themselves, in one way or another). Can we therefore see the social-political and the personal as somewhat mirroring each other, or one as being in some ways analogous to the other, and thus resonating with the book’s readership?
LENGTH: 2000 (minimum) to 2500 words. Essays shorter than the minimum will suffer a penalty of 4% per 100 words. Essays should be double-spaced, size 12 font, 1 inch (25 mm) left and right margins, etc. Use Canadian spelling. Quote, but use brief quotations rather than large blocks of text wherever possible. Ensure that all quotations are pertinent, adequately introduced and well integrated. Base your analysis on your own reading of the novels in question; the essay should be the product of each student’s own application and reading. Secondary sources should be used, but only as support. Those secondary sources should be acknowledged as such to avoid the possibility of being charged with academic fraud. See https://www.uottawa.ca/plagiarism.pdf.
Use at least two scholarly sources as well as the primary text.
Cite and document your sources using the current MLA parenthetical method (which was updated in 2016) . (See https://library.concordia.ca/help/citing/mla.php and/or https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/ for help with this). Provide a proper title at the top of your first page, and a separate Works Cited page.
Be sure that your essay has a central argument (your thesis) that drives it. That is, it should have a point, a strong argument that is the thread that holds the paper together. Be sure that your paper is not merely a series of observations or points floating around a vague argument. Unexcused late essays will be penalized 10% a day (including weekends and holidays). That is, an essay potentially scoring 30/35 that is submitted one day late will have its grade reduced to 26.5/35. Work more than one (unexcused) week late will not be accepted. (Get started early to avoid eventual grief).
