Mike Verney HIST 410 SECOND PAPER Spring 2017 Directions: Answer ONE of the following questions in a formal essay: 1. Harrison’s novel includes a broad array of themes, including religion, nationalism, the relationship between officers and soldiers, military glory, gender, and alcohol. Of these, which two are the most important? Why? What important roles do your selections play in the text? Just as you would for other essay assignments, be sure that you formulate a clear thesis and use abundant evidence in supporting your argument. 2. What does Harrison want the reader to conclude about the Great War? In other words, what is his thesis or argument? What are the three most important main points that support his argument? Paper Formats: Papers should be about three to four pages in length, double-spaced pages (at least three pages and no more than four and a half pages) with standard margins, use Times New Roman font in black ink (size 12), have page numbers on the bottom right corners of pages, and be paper-clipped or stapled. You may only use materials from the course, including assigned texts, lectures, and class discussions. You MAY NOT use information from other websites and/or unassigned readings. This paper must be your own work; papers that are too similar to those by other students will be considered plagiarism. Grading: “A” papers will have strong content, organization, style, professionalism, and grammar. It will engage with primary sources and may even use lectures and the textbook. Please note that papers with little or no citations can get no better than a “C+.” Submitting Papers: This paper is due at 10:10 am on Thursday, March 23, in hard-copy (printed) format. In addition, students must also submit their papers online through the “Second Paper” link in the “Assignments” tab on myCourses (Canvas) by the same deadline. Citations: You are required to use in-text parenthetical MLA citations for this paper. Citations should appear at the end of your sentence, after quotation marks but before the period. In parentheses, write the last name of the author or the editor and then give the page number. While you would normally need a Works Cited page for this format, you do not need one for this class. To cite from the textbook, The American Promise, this would look like: (Roark et al., 72). To cite from Johnson’s Reading the American, this would look like: (Johnson, 19). To cite from Harrison, write “Harrison,” then give the page number: (Harrison, 25). To cite from lectures or our discussions, write “Class,” then the date: (Class, 9/22/16). 1
