Under certain conditions specified in the law, libraries and archives are authorized to furnish a photocopy or other reproduction. One of these specified conditions is that the photocopy or reproduction is not to be “used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research.” If a user makes a request for, or later uses, a photocopy or reproduction for purposes in excess of “fair use,” that user may be liable for copyright infringement. This institution reserves the right to refuse to accept a copying order if, in its judgement, fulfillment of the order would involve violation of copyright law. Short Analytical Paper (20 Credits)—Due March 31 The source to be analyzed is: Vandervall, Isabella. “Some Problems of the Colored Woman Physician.” The Woman’s Medical Journal 27, no. 7 (1917): 156-158. [This is the full citation for the document.] Information you may use in your analysis: The Woman’s Medical Journal was a publication of the Medical Women’s National Association. This was an American professional association. Isabella Vandervall was a graduate of the New York Medical College and Hospital for Women, located in New York City. Directions: You should aim at a critical analysis of the primary source. It should go beyond a summary or overview of the source. Based on careful and close reading (and rereading) of the source, you must: 1. give the date of the source and use the date to place the source in the larger context of the history of health care for African Americans (Limit your explanation of context to one or two brief summary sentences.) 2. explain what type of document the source is 3. (in one or two sentences) identify the source’s author (name, gender, race/ ethnicity, profession, etc.) 4. describe The Woman’s Medical Journal and discuss the intended and likely audience for the document 5. identify and clearly explain the major, specific topic of the document (Look for the specific topic that the author discusses at most length in the document. Discrimination, race, gender, racism, sexism, etc., do not count as specific topics.) 6. (in a separate paragraph) discuss how the author developed the major topic of the document; summarize the content of the author’s remarks on this topic and analyze her perspective and tone 7. explain why the author wrote and published this document (that is, what the author hoped the document would do) and give evidence from the document to support your answer (Among other telling aspects of the document, discuss its title and conclusion.) 8. (in a separate paragraph) discuss how characteristics of the author, The Woman’s Medical Journal, and the intended audience help to explain the content, perspective, and tone of the document 9. (in a separate paragraph) summarize and analyze the author’s discussion of her reception when, as a graduate, she returned to her medical school to attend a reception (Consider how discussion of this event fits with the rest of the document and how it fits with the intended audience.) 10. state one relevant question that is unanswered by this document (This could be a question that you would want to ask the author—if possible—to increase your understanding of the source.) 11. include one brief but revealing quotation from the document (Quote exactly. Do not include any quoted material other than the one required quotation. You will lose credit if you include more than one short quoted passage.) General Directions: You are not required to discuss the specified points in any given order. Rather you should present your ideas in a well-organized, short paper that includes an introduction and conclusion. Write in complete sentences, organized into coherent paragraphs. Your paper may not exceed three double-spaced, 12-point Calibri, typed pages, with one-inch margins. We will not read beyond page three! (Bottom-line: anything you write beyond page 3 will not be graded.) If there is any question about whether or not you have double-spaced your paper, we will ask you to send the paper to us as a Word attachment to an email. Staple the three-page paper together with a separate cover sheet. The cover sheet should include your name and the full citation for the document you are analyzing. As with any assignment, keep a back-up file/copy of the paper for your own records. Ground Rules for Preparing and Writing the Assignment: You are permitted to do background research (on the web or otherwise). Your paper, however, should be based on the primary source, “Some Problems of the Colored Woman Physician,” informed by the lectures and other course readings. This primary source will not be discussed in lectures or discussion sections prior to submission of the analytical papers. Neither Professor Pycior nor Ms. Buhler will discuss the source with you outside class. You should not collaborate with other students on this assignment. The analytical paper that you submit should be your independent work and should show evidence of your independent and critical thought. You alone should conceptualize, outline, and write the paper. You should write the paper in your own words. Note, however, in preparing your analytical paper you may consult with the tutors at the UWM Writing Center. Check the Writing Center out at: http://www4.uwm.edu/writingcenter/ Do not include any quoted material other than the one required quotation (see #11 above). You will lose credit if you include more than one short quoted passage. Plagiarism: Do not cheat; do not plagiarize.
