Topic: Victorian Narrative

Due Today: Bibliography and Thesis (20pts)

Advance work for the term paper. A new topic - not an expansion of work you have already done. Two parts.

First, a properly-formatted MLA-style works cited page, including the primary source(s) you plan to examine, as well as at least four academic sources.

Second, a sample thesis paragraph, followed by at least two quotations in support of your thesis, and two quotations that form an opposing or alternative argument. (If you can't find credible evidence against your thesis, then your thesis probably doesn't need any defense, and is thus not worth presenting in an academic paper).
