After you have chosen which theme or themes you want to apply to your research
paper and have completed your sentence outline ( an outline of the theme from the
article or essay you chose), you are to start looking for that theme in the novel or
selection and how it is presented or represented..
Since your research paper is a literary analysis paper, you will be looking for how
your particular theme works in the novel/selection once you begin your paper. I
suggest that you do not attempt to work on the paper until you have a clear and
concise understanding of your theme and have read the entire novel/selection.
Make sure you mark significant passages in your novel/selection that will help to
strengthen your argument.
Always introduce your direct quotation, paraphrase and summary. Also make sure
you comment afterwards. By doing this introduction and commentary, your voice
will be sure to be heard in the paper.
Make sure you remain as objective as possible. Note using the first person “I” in a
paper makes it subjective. The second person “you” is not an indefinite pronoun. A
useful pronoun to use is “one” then follow it with “s/he.” Or make the subject plural
and follow it with “they.”
The length of your paper should be 6-8 full pages for ENGL 102 and 8-10 for
Humanities with the Works Cited page not counting as one of those pages.
All pages should be numbered beginning with the first and ending with the Works
Cited page. Papers are to be submitted in Word 97-2003.
For a paper this length you should have at least 6 sources. Three of these sources
must be critical, from a collection of essays or an article in a refereed journal. A
refereed journal is a journal that specializes in the topic where the paper has been sent
to at least three of the author’s peers and then published. Do not use Wikipedia as a
source. You may use it as a means to obtain a clear and precise idea of you topic.
Sometimes Wikipedia will give you a link to a credible source that you may be able
to use.
If you do a cover page, MLA dictates that an outline of the paper should follow. You
will be turning all materials into me in a portfolio on the due date. Do not bold,
underline or italicize your titles, and please try to be creative with them.
JSTOR, MLA Bibliography, ABELL are just a few of the databases where you can
obtain a refereed article. They are under Literature and Languages via of research
port. They are online databases that you can retrieve from the University Library
homepage.
Before you submit your paper make sure you make an appointment with The MSU
Writing Center

The Introductory Paragraph
The paragraph that begins an essay causes students the most trouble, yet carries the most
importance. Although its precise construction varies from genre to genre (and from essay to
essay), good introductory paragraphs generally accomplish the same tasks and follow a few basic
patterns. I have listed some of them below, but keep in mind that what follows are guidelines, not
immutable templates.
Tasks: The introductory paragraph to a short essay usually attempts to do three things:
•
•
•
Introduce the topic with some indication of its inherent interest or importance, and a clear
definition of the boundaries of the subject area
Indicate the structure and/or methodology of the essay, often with the major sections of
the essay or its structural principle clearly stated
State the thesis of the essay, preferably in a single, arguable statement with a clear main
clause
Not every essay does all three in the first paragraph, and the degree to which an essay declares its
structure or methodology may vary widely, depending on how necessary that information will be
to the readers. Sometimes, the entire first paragraph will serve no other purpose than to generate
interest in the subject or raise a question, leaving the other tasks for the second paragraph.
However, this kind of opening requires a lot of skill, and you can lose your readers in the second
and third paragraphs if do not make your purpose clear.
Patterns: The standard pattern for an introductory paragraph follows the order of the tasks
outlined above. Below is an outline of that pattern, written as if it were the first section of a
formal outline of the entire essay:
I: Introduction
A. The topic
1. Its boundaries
2. Why it is interesting
B. Structure and/or Methodology
1. The essay’s main sections (structure)
2. Why they come in that order (structural principle)
3. How the author plans to draw the necessary conclusions from the
information available (methodology)
C. The Thesis Statement (usually a single sentence)
1. Its premise (the general claim about the information available)
2
2. Its conclusion (the consequences of the first claim)
Not every essay contains every element in precisely this order, but most good essays cover all of
them, either explicitly or implicitly. In longer and more scholarly essays, the
structure/methodology section should be longer, or can even be its own paragraph. It should also
include some mention of the essay’s position within the field as a whole.
