Now that you have completed Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, you are in a good position to consider what critics have written about the novel. You will need a total of TWO critiques (also known as critical analysis essays) for this assignment. First, use the selection of links below to locate a critical analysis essay written about the 1818 version of Mary Shelley’s novel. You may focus most of your attention on this first critique. Choose from among these sources: Romantic Circle’s Critiques: https://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/chronologies/mschronology/reviews/barev.html https://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/chronologies/mschronology/reviews/bemrev.html https://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/chronologies/mschronology/reviews/bcrev.html https://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/chronologies/mschronology/reviews/emrev.html https://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/chronologies/mschronology/reviews/lprev.html https://www.rc.umd.edu/reference/chronologies/mschronology/reviews/qrrev.html Professor Sherry Ginn’s critique: https://www.clas.ufl.edu/ipsa/2003/ginn.html Professor Naomi Hetheringtons critique: https://knarf.english.upenn.edu/Articles/hether.html Evaluate the critic/author: Who wrote the criticism you read? What credentials does the author have? (If you are using a valid source, you should be able to find these easily; these details are usually just before or at the end of the essay.) Find the thesis of the article: What is the thesis of the critical article youve chosen? What point does the author want to make about Frankenstein? Evaluate the thesis: Do you agree with this thesis? Why or why not? Weve covered many ideas in the study guides. Can you find points within the guides that support your agreement or disagreement with the critical writer(s)? Look for new supporting information rather than revisiting the same ones the critics have chosen. Evaluate the support: Whether you agree or disagree with the thesis, does the critic provide sufficient research from the text and outside references to make a strong case? Do you feel the author uses this support properly? Next, locate a second critique about the novel that includes ideas somewhat similar (genre classification, for instance) to any of the discussions you have in your essay. The second critique can either support or refute any of the claims in your paper. The objective of this portion of the essay is to further support your opinion of the primary critics thesis or support. Therefore, for example, if you choose a secondary article that refutes any of your claims, you will need to counteract those ideas to bring the focus of your essay back in alignment with your essays thesis (your personal opinion of how the primary critic is either correct or incorrect in his or her thesis claim and/or how the first critic is either effective or ineffective in his or her support). Every discussion in this essay should ultimately support the claim you make in your thesis. For instance, if the first critic argues that Shelleys writing is juvenile, and if you agree, does the second critic also support this thesis? How so? If the second critic does not support your assessment of the first critic’s thesis, what evidence can you use from the text to argue that the second critic is incorrect? Consider another example: if the first critic believes the novel is autobiographical, and if you disagree, does the second critic help you argue you own view of the first critic’s thesis? If so, how?

Research essay 1 due in tutorial, week of 26 November 20%
The first-term writing assignment is a 12-15 page research essay on a pre-Confederation topic.
More details:
Please note that a tutorial will be given over to discussing the essay assignment, primary and secondary sources, where to find them, etc.
I have attached a list of possible topics below. But feel free to come to me or to your Teaching Assistant and propose a topic of your own. Be sure it is not too big (What was pre-Confederation Canada like?) or too small or impossible to research (What was Sable Island like on 3 July 1752?). And be sure, of course, that it deals with pre-Confederation Canada.
There is a reason I framed these topics in terms of questions. An essay involves finding a question that is worth answering, and then making an argument as to the answer, using evidence and logic. Your essay will involve research into a minimum seven secondary sources articles, books, etc. written after the fact about the historical time period and a minimum one primary source material contemporary to the time that helps us understand the historical issue. Your essay will require footnotes or endnotes. It will also require a list of works cited; please add a * beside the primary sources, to indicate you understand which these are.
Essays do not have as rigid a structure as scientific papers do. But they have a basic form you should learn. (Writing is like most everything else in life: you first learn the fields norms and practices, and then figure out how you might move beyond them.) Here are some thoughts about the standard 3- section structure, often simplified as Tell em what youll tell em. Tell em. Tell em what you told em.Introduction:
o Maybe15% of the essays full length.
oOften opens with an anecdote,statistic,quote, etc.that allows the reader to wade into
the topic, to see how it is important, interesting, surprising, etc.
oNot surprisingly, its in the Introduction that things are introduced. Youll want to mention who, what, when, where youre discussing as soon as possible: the reader shouldnt be on p.4 thinking What century are we in? Likewise, you need to define or identify important terms on first mention (or, at worst, second) so that the reader can learn the term and/or learn how you understand the term.
oHaving introduced the historical issue, the introduction moves toward the question, what has to be determined about the issue. This culminates, toward the end of the introduction (often at the very end), with the thesis statement. Although there may be good reason not to be so baldly explicit about your thesis, successful ones often boil down to By doing this, I will argue this. An example: Through an examination of English municipal records, this essay will argue that John Cabot did not die in his 1498 voyage, but lived on until the early 1500s.Main body:
o Maybe75% of the essays full length.
oThis is long enough that you need to consider how your topic lends itself to a structure
that can help you break things down further. For example, if the body is going to be 10 pages or so, and your paragraphs tend to average 1 page each, what will your 10 paragraphs be about? Maybe there are 4 threads to the argument you are making, so they should each get about 2 paragraphs. Maybe youre dealing with 3 time periods, so each should get 3 paragraphs. Many essays fail by flailing they just dive in with no evident plan or structure.
o The body will provide more much moredetail about the historical matter in question, but it needs to stay focused on proving the thesis statement. You should ask of every paragraph, Is this moving me toward proving my thesis statement?
oThink about what you can prove, but also what you cant prove. Consider how your reader might shoot down or doubt your arguments, and so raise those concerns yourself and, to the degree you can, disprove them. You should push your argument as far, but only as far, as you can honestly and effectively take it.
oTwo important bits of advice about ordering information:First, for a history essay, telling the story chronologically is almost always the right solution. Second, describe and then analyze.
oShow, dont tell”. This means provide evidence for what you argue. It also means that while some signposting is necessary, there is no need to over-signpost (such as In the coming paragraph, I will make the case that…). If your argument is logical, the reader will follow you, so you dont need to constantly remind the reader where youre going.
oShow your work. If you cite 10 sources, but only discuss 1 in detail, the reader may assume you didnt fully examine or understand the other 9. Be sure to discuss many. And if you went beyond the requirements of the assignment, be sure to showcase that fact. (A reading of every British newspaper published in 1500 determined that….)Conclusion:
o Maybe10% of the essays length.
oTheres some truth that the Conclusion is where youTell em what you told em,but
that can open it up to being repetitive and boring. The fact that you have already made your argument, and that the reader can see the blank white space at the end of your essay, allows you both to relax a little. Consider taking your topic or thesis in a fresh, slightly different direction. For example, perhaps relate the historical question to the present-day, or discuss what questions your essay was unable to answer. Or bring things back to the anecdote, quote, or statistic that began the essay.

3.Discssion week 5: the Holy Grail and the Christianization of pre-Christian legend No unread replies. 2 2 replies. This week, I’d like us to discuss the Holy Grail, and the Christianization of pre-Christian legend.The Arthurian legends heavily feature Christianity. In particular, I’m thinking of the Holy Grail — the cup used by Jesus Christ at the Last Supper — and the part of the Arthurian cycle that we read this week. As the writers of the earliest Arthurian epics (Chretien de Troye in particular) envisioned it, it was a beautiful golden goblet or chalice, brought to England by Joseph of Arimathea, and lost to time somewhere near Glastonbury, in the Grail Castle.But the legends of King Arthur — if there even was a real King Arthur — go back to long before England was Christianized. There’s even an extremely popular series of novels based on the conflict between paganism and Christianity, centered on the Arthur legends (the Mists of Avalon series, by Marion Zimmer Bradley).This is also what happened with the legends of Robin Hood, which went back long before the Christianization of England. One of the endings of the Robin Hood cycle has Robin dying in an abbey. Another has Maid Marion in a convent. We’ve talked already about Christianity, and how one of the ways in which it was able to convert so many people so quickly was by taking existing saints, holy places, shrines, and legends, and Christianizing them — the classic example is St. Bridgit, who had been a pagan goddess before the Christians arrived. Where a holy grove existed, a church was built. If a spring was dedicated to a pagan deity or nature spirit, that deity or spirit was replaced with a Catholic saint.So the question for this week is… does the Christianization of pre-Christian legend serve the same purpose as the re-branding of holy places and people in the pagan religions flourishing in Europe and England before they were Christainized? Why? Why not?Write at least one paragraph, of at least five sentences. Use specific examples from the readings to support your answer.If you quote or paraphrase from a research source other than the course materials, use an informal citation (title, author, page or website) in parentheses. Failure to do so is plagiarism and will earn 0 points.For full credit, post twice: once for yourself, and once in response respond to one of your colleague’s posts.
Vannessas Response:
Christianity drove innovation as we see with the period of cathedral buildings and their artwork from the Renaissance. Christian ideas were spread through the establishment of the Church. Europe did not nurture that type of innovation during that time. Pagan religions and society were more deeply connected to nature for example their temples were located in the woods or near sources of water. Christianity had the purpose of spreading belief but also of ensuring political stability and cultural proliferation in relation to religion.Aarons Response:
Yes, the Christianization of pre-Christian legend does the same does serve the same purpose. As the Christians use existing public figures as the pagan religions used can be considered as re-branding as well. Christianizing previous public figures changes the purpose of the figure, the two religions had different beliefs and ideas. With different beliefs comes with different stories with these figures. Changing the story of the figures counts as re-branding.Choose either Vanessa or Aaron

Case Study 1 Janet is a 27 year old woman living in a small town in Oklahoma. She is married to the sheriff’s son, Davis, and they have been together since they started dating as high school sweethearts. Davis works for the Sherrif’s Office, managing their training of new deputies. Janet never went to college and chose to stay home as a house wife, as she knew that was Davis’ preference. She loves being able to provide a clean, happy home environment for Davis and has a home cooked meal ready for him every evening when he arrives home. Janet also has Type 1 diabetes and feels that Davis is taking care of her by taking the stress away of her having to work as well as manage her health needs. One day, Janet’s mom is in a minor traffic accident that results in an overnight stay in a hospital 2 hours away. Janet’s mom’s injuries are minor and she is expected to be discharged the next day; Janet decides to stay overnight in the hospital with her mom so she is not lonely. Davis expresses anger when Janet calls him to tell him she will not be home to make dinner or be at their home in the evening. When Janet arrives back to their house the next day, she finds their locks changed and a suitcase on the front porch with a few of her belongings. When she calls Davis, he explains that he is tired of her selfish behavior and that he is filing for divorce. He also states that he has been having an affair with the secretary at the Sheriff’s office and she is moving into his house. Since Janet is not on the deed to the home, he states that she cannot enter the premises without being arrested for breaking and entering. Janet is heartbroken and embarrassed. In addition to having no income of her own and needing a place to stay, she realizes all of her diabetes management supplies are still in the home. She quickly calls a lawyer in the next town to set up a consultation for the following week, but she is worried she will not be able to get legal proceedings to move fast enough to retrieve her supplies from the home before the extra supplies she had packed for her overnight stay run out. She knows her mother cannot loan her enough money to buy the supplies at retail cost. She contemplates quickly breaking a window into the bathroom to retrieve her supplies before Davis gets home from work. What should Janet do? Instructions Write at least a one page paper (regular margins and font, not including header and footer) choosing Janet’s next steps based on one of the stages of Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Reasoning. There is no right answer in this case study and I am more concerned with you connecting your response to the reading in section 8.4 on Kohlberg’s Theory.
