Description
Your Task:
For this assignment, you will write a research paper of at least 2000 words on a topic of your choice that is connected to the class theme of "Monsters."
Approaches:
- Fictional: Look at a fictional movie, TV episode, music video, or piece of media and do a close analysis of the "monster/villain"
- Historical: Look at a real-life dictator, serial killer, scientist, social network, etc. and do an analysis of the coverage of the person.
- Scientific: Look at modern science e.g. cloning, Crispr, genetic modification etc. and decide whether that type of science is creating modern heroes or monsters.
- Current events: Do a deep dive on a current event like border control, politics, make-up, sports, and analyize whether your topic is helping society or harming it?
The Steps:
- Pick an issue related to the broad theme of "monsters" that interest you e.g something from the class or Frankenstein's Cat.
- Narrow down the topic to something you can cover in 2000+ words e.g. "Is it ethical to conduct cloning research for profit?" or "What modern fear does the monster in Birdbox represent?"
- Read articles and books, and watch some media clips that interest you on that topic. Make sure to get sources you agree and disagree with
- Put your sources on your source list. You must use the sources in the Annotated Bibliography.
- After doing a little research, develop your topic on your issue develop a hypothesis. Basically, take a stand on how your topic impacts the local community. Hint: This will turn into your thesis.

Essay #1 Proposal
Fears and isolation
Introduction:
The existence of fear that is haunting the life of its possessor is a common problem in
society. Individuals are full of fear about their future and the wellbeing of those that they love. It
is uncommon to have a society where individuals are living in the absence of fear. The movie the
monsters is an illustration of the fear of human being possess when the lives of those they love
are in danger. Moreover, individuals are inclined to alienate from the people they love due to fear
of hurting them. Behaviors of an individual depict the type of a person. In the film, Kathy, a
drunkard, and abusive parents are worried about the safety of her daughter. Kathy is determined
to drive her daughter to the father’s place, away from her since she cares about her safety.
Understanding the influence of fear in our lives is essential to our wellbeing. This research
project will provide an overview of how fear is portrayed in the film and how it relates to our
lives. In addition, it will provide consequences associated with the feeling of fear as highlighted
in the film (Annas & Elias. Pp. 98-101)
Issue:
The ability to control our fears is a growing topic. The contemporary society is chained in
a series of problems that invite fear, remorse, and regrets. Individuals have endangered their lives
MA 2
hoping to keep the lives of those that they love from the implication of their fears. Fighting our
problems is a challenging task. At times, people end up giving up and giving in for the issues
affecting them. The effect leads to living unfulfilled lives. In reference to the movie, Kathy must
fight the monster within herself.
What your research paper will add:
The research aims to answer the following questions.
1.
What are the typical fears manifested in the film and exist in the current society?
2.
How to classify the fears for easier understanding
3.
What is the impact of fear in the lives of those surrounding us?
4.
What are the ways to fight the fear?
Types of Research:
The chief research method is a critical review and analysis of the film ‘the monster’. The
study will first review and analyze the characters involved, their traits, background, and impact
on the film. Based on the roles identified, the study will evaluate the relation between the
characters activities and the hypothesis of the study. Next, the review will identify instances
where individuals portray fear, and the consequences of their actions. In the second stage of the
study, literature concerning the topic will be reviewed to provide different perspectives on the
topic. Using journals, academic sources, and websites as a source of data, the research will
evaluate the current practices and behavioral practices related to the topic.
Conclusion:
The long-term goal of the research is to develop a clear and concise approach to the
management of fear. Managing our fears revolves around the process of identifying, classifying,
and defining ways to solve the problems in our lives. The objective of the current study is to
MA 3
provide a comprehensive review of the literature as well as practices relative to solving fears and
provide a framework for fear management. The following are sub-objectives of the research.
1.
Provide a comprehensive review of the film and instances manifested by fear.
2.
To develop methods of classifying fears for easier analysis, and understanding.
3.
To review the current practices and activities in the society exhibited by fear.
4.
Provide a framework to solve fears.
The outcomes of the study will be valuable to individuals struggling with addiction, fears,
and medical practitioners entitled to care for patients. The study will be an active tool for
healthcare professionals and the public (Phillips & John. P. 604).

CARS score: 19
Readability: 60.75
Quote: “As I venture from bucolic barnyards to a “frozen zoo” where scientists are storing DNA
from the planet’s most exotic creatures, I discover how we can use cloning to protect
endangered species, craft prosthetics to save injured animals, and employ genetic
engineering to stock farms with disease-resistant livestock. Along the way, we meet some
of the animals that are ushering in this astonishing age of enhancement, including sensorwearing seals, cyborg beetles, a bionic bulldog, and the world’s first cloned cat.”(Athens)
Summary: According to the author, with science, clones can be created from original species to
protect endangered species and to create disease resistant animals.

Quote: “Parents of children with genetic conditions or impairments stand in a unique position
with regard to choices and dilemmas posed by prenatal screening and testing options
offered to at‐risk parents as a means to a ‘healthy’ baby.”
Summary: Choosing to avoid the condition of choice appears to be a strategy of responsible
parenting that emerges from ambivalence towards the options presented by reproductive
technologies.
Note: Alzheimer’s Prevention Register is a respectable organization fighting the
Alzheimer’s disease. The articlepoints at the role of genetics in the disease, which wouldserve as
evidence for my essay.

Quote: “The use of CRISPR to modify human embryos has prompted a healthy debate on the
ethics of human genetic technologies. This tool is controversial, in part, because changes
that are made to the embryo could be passed down to future generations”
Summary: This article shows how possible it is to alter the human genetic composition of an
embryo to make it stronger. It says that there is a high chance of these embryos passing
the genetic changes to the future generations. Which poses the question whether it is
ethically right, or are we just creating monsters with science?
Note: The article is very important as it explains the controversy between science and ethics.

Quote: “Ms. Anthes talks about one example: "One lab in China is even tackling the human
genome by way of the mouse genome. There, researchers are randomly disabling mouse
genes one at a time, in order to identify the function of each gene. By essentially
throwing darts at a genetic dartboard to see what happens, the researchers have filled
45,000 mouse cages with mutant mice." Oh my. And, we know mice display empathy for
other mice in pain.”

Monster Essay
In the nature of mythology, monsters provide a big to challenge to human beings and it
has proven to be hard to overcome the challenge. Heroes in the world are trying to gain fame by
defeating monsters but the unfortunate part of it is that some of them perish in their attempt.
Monsters spread fears all over the world among people and this fear becomes hard for men to
conquer. Besides, these fears present opportunities to heroes to try prove themselves to town
people. According to the Greek mythology monsters do not have strange parts but at the same
time have fall into distinct categories that are based on their form and duty. In some cases,
monsters are found to be having multiple heads and most of them have duties that include
guarding something for another being. The story of monsters takes me back to my childhood
periods when I was scared in the mention of any monster.
Over the years I have come to learn more about monsters and I believe that all monsters
have died and left us with scary skeletons. However, even in the contemporary world, young
people still fear of monsters and that they are still lurking in the shadows and still make the flow
creek. In other cases, monsters have responsibilities of killing and causing harm to the people. In
light of this, this essay tries to define what is monstrous about the 19th century monsters in gothic
literature. The paper delves on exploring majorly on the novel The Garden of the Earth together
with the book Dracula by Bram Stocker and the novel Carmilla by Le Fanu and also gives a
Surname2
brief look at H Rider Haggard and the Doyle’s. The paper will also describe the representation of
monsters in the Hound of the Baskervilles.
In the contemporary world, the word monster can be defined as a beast that is imaginary
and composed various parts of humans and animals all together in one body. The most common
of all monsters of the world is the griffin or a mermaid. In other cases, a monster can be
described as a person, animal or plant that has marked with structural parts that are deformed.
Monsters are also characterized as to being cruel, wicked and inhuman in other cases. In the
novel The Hound in the Hound of the Baskervilles the first traditional monster is conspicuously
seen and it is described as in the first sense of word.
The novel gives a description of a monster as an enormous black creature just like coal
hound but does not appear as an exact hound in the mortal eyes of humans. The novel continues
to describe a monster as an animal and creature whose eyes glow; mouth spit fire and has a
smoldering glare of everything. In addition, the hound monster muzzles and hackles in the sight
of people and dewlap were outlined in the flickering flame (Conan Doyle 149). M...
