The Proposal
In a paper proposal, your job is to answer the what, how, and why of your essay topic so that
your audience understands the basic parameters of your argument.
For this proposal, you will write me (your professor) a letter that contains the following:
1) Capture the reader’s interest with your introduction, which should be a brief explanation
of your topic as a whole. This is where you explain the exigency (show why this is a
problem/idea worth considering and why?)
2) Write your working thesis statement. Formulate the question that will govern your
research, and then answer it with a strong statement/claim that your paper intends to
prove.
3) Supply background/context on your topic along with the purpose and relevance of your
thesis. Explain what you hope to prove or uncover. Provide concrete examples of the
issues you will be exploring, and explain why the research you will conduct is important.
This is where you will branch away from the primary source (the novel) to explain why
the theme or idea you are exploring is relevant beyond the page.
4) Discuss preliminary research on your topic while developing your proposal; explain how
this research fits into your argument and plans for the paper. How are you going to use
your sources? (make sure to include primary and secondary sources).
Project Text: The Road
In this project we will explore the post-apocalyptic genre and how texts of this genre reflect issues
and anxieties coursing through everyday life.
You will begin this Project by reading and analyzing Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. During this
time, we will pay close attention to themes being built within the text that provide insight on
“real-world” issues. You will then conduct research of your own (using the CSUN databases) in
order to find evidence that supports your theme in that “real-world” context.
The essay itself will be an argument made by you with an explicit thesis that is proven with
evidence from our primary text: The Road, and at least three resources you have found on the
CSUN databases.
Basic Requirements:
- 6 page minimum with Works Cited (not included in page count)
- Standard MLA Format
- A completed essay packet.
- Essay needs to be posted to your Class Website AND turned in at the beginning of class.
- Minimum of 3 secondary sources. You may use the articles I have provided for you, but
these will not count towards the minimum requirement.
- Proof of visit to the LRC.
- Completion of all lead-up exercises.
Exercise 1: The Review
For this assignment, you will be required to write a scholarly review of Cormac McCarthy’s The
Road. In this review, you will be required to interpret The Road within a larger conversation (based
on the themes you have been developing throughout the past few weeks). Your review will need
to include supplemental information from two of our previous texts.

Essay
Essays are generally scholarly pieces of writing giving the author's own argument, but the definition is vague, overlapping with those of an article, a pamphlet and a short story.
Essays can consist of a number of elements, including: literary criticism, political manifestos, learned arguments, observations of daily life, recollections, and reflections of the author. Almost all modern essays are written in prose, but works in verse have been dubbed essays (e.g. Alexander Pope's An Essay on Criticism and An Essay on Man). While brevity usually defines an essay, voluminous works like John Locke's An Essay Concerning Human Understanding and Thomas Malthus's An Essay on the Principle of Population are counterexamples. In some countries (e.g., the United States and Canada), essays have become a major part of formal education. Secondary students are taught structured essay formats to improve their writing skills; admission essays are often used by universities in selecting applicants, and in the humanities and social sciences essays are often used as a way of assessing the performance of students during final exams.
Abortion And The Right To Not Be Pregnant (2016)
This document discusses Judith Thomson's 1971 article "A Defense of Abortion" and its significance in launching philosophical debate about abortion. It summarizes that Thomson's article used novel examples, like connecting the reader to the experience of pregnancy through a thought experiment, and an informal second-person style that drew many women into philosophy. The article energized the new field of "practical ethics" examining real-world issues and helped legal debates around the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision regarding abortion laws in the US.

This document discusses various aspects of critical reading such as:
- Critical reading involves carefully analyzing a text to understand its meaning and assess its merits. This includes understanding the author's intent, structure, word choices, and more.
- There are explicit details directly stated in the text as well as implicit details not directly stated that require reading between the lines.
- Claims can be of fact, value, or policy and should be argumentative, specific, interesting, and logical.
- Critical reading skills include distinguishing fact from opinion, identifying purpose and tone, and making inferences. Context and how texts reference or are modeled on each other is also important for understanding.
Report LED 204.pptx
This document provides an overview of critical reading skills. It defines critical reading as a close analysis of a text to fully understand it and evaluate its merits. This involves asking questions about the author's intent, structure, word meanings, and more. The document outlines different types of information in a text, such as explicit vs implicit details. It also defines key concepts like claims, inferences, context, hypertext, intertextuality, and using textual evidence to support ideas. The overall goal is to teach learners how to closely analyze a text and support their perspectives.
Essay #2 addresses some topic in the broad scope of Transcendentalis.docx
Essay #2 addresses some topic in the broad scope of Transcendentalism.
Essay #2 has similar parameters -- length/outside source requirements, drafting process -- as Essay #1.
You are always free to develop your own topic approach within the Transcendentalism topic.
Some suggestive options:
1) Analyze Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience" in light of a contemporary example or figure or incident in the tradition of American civil disobedience.
2) Analyze the persuasive and rhetorical strategies of one of the transcendental pieces (or King's "Letter") that we have read. You might look at issues of audience, style, emotional vs./and rational appeal, appeals to history/tradition or rejection of history/tradtion, metaphoric style, tone and so forth. If you deem them successful, why/how do they succeed in arguing their points? What might be points of counterargument or criticism or weaknesses in their approach? Does it work as a piece of argument/writing?
3) Pick one (or several if you feel it's appropriate) key concepts or quotes from a work (or several works) and discuss the concept/quote in terms of how it has evolved or put it in larger context. How have these words taken form in our laws, practice, literature, or culture? Where are the gaps between the great ideals of these writers' words and the reality of their times and/or ours? e.g. How might MLK (in light of his "Letter") feel about the society and civil rights situation we see today?
4) You could pick one, two, or three key themes from any of the works and discuss how the text fleshes out these themes and why they are important to our understanding of the period, or the particular writer, or to transcendentalism as a movement, or to American tradition or literature and so forth.
5) You could pick a theme which runs through several of the texts (for example, something about the role or nature of the individual) and trace it through its different configuration and representations.
Essay length: 4-5 pages -- again, I'm always more concerned with minimum than limiting any maximum length.
Include outside critical sources.

Introduction to Sociology – Final PaperObjective of Paper Thi.docx
Introduction to Sociology – Final Paper
Objective of Paper: This is a standard research paper based on secondary and primary sources. It should address its topic from a sociological perspective. This means that whatever topic you pick should be discussed using terminology from the readings and class discussions, should be critically examined (meaning its construction, labels, and groups should be discussed and critiqued), and should be placed in a larger context based on what we’ve read and the material we’ve discussed.
Format: The paper must be typed in Times New Roman font, size 12, double-spaced. Points will be deducted for not following these specifications. Do not use color, include images, or provide a cover page. List your name, the course name, and the term at the top of the page, then write your title, then begin the paper. Papers must be at least 6 pages (not including the reference page). Points will be deducted if papers less than 6 and exceed 9 pages.
Citation Style: All citations (to be discussed later in this document) should be in American Sociological Association (ASA) format. See this website: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/583/02/ for information on in-text citations as well as reference page formatting (you’ll have to click on a link to get to the reference page specifications). All citations must appear in the text. You cannot simply list them all at the end of the paper. If you take an idea or a quote from an author, you must cite that author in the text and include her in the reference page as well. Failure to properly cite will result in point deductions.
Layout of Paper: The paper should be divided into FIVE parts:
· Introduction: You will introduce your topic and briefly describe it. You must also tell the reader:
· Why this topic should be interesting to an average reader (e.g., why should I care about the history of the “insanity” please in US courts if I am not a lawyer?)
· Why the topic is sociological
· Literature Review: Since you are probably not the first person to research this topic, you should do some reading of past authors’ works. You should give a summary of their works and explain why it is important to be aware of their works before doing your own research on your topic. You must use a minimum of 4 sources in your literature review. Also, you may only use academic sources or government publications. Acceptable sources are: academic books, journal articles from peer-reviewed journals, and government publications. Unacceptable sources include (but are not limited to): magazines, newspapers, blogs, “.com” websites, online news articles, or non-academic books. There are two major types of literature to look for:
· Literature which covers your topic specifically
· Literature which covers a topic somewhat related to your topic, but which helps you understand your own topic. For instance, if I’m writing a paper on a specific “Doomsday Cult” in Texas, I might end up with a lot of literature.

Literary theory, catcher
This document provides instructions for an assignment analyzing J.D. Salinger's novel "The Catcher in the Rye" through the lens of a literary theory. Students are asked to choose a literary theory from the Purdue OWL website, summarize its key points and tenets, related historical figures and time period. They then begin brainstorming how the chosen theory can be applied to analyzing the novel by considering how it may be present in the text, characters, or relationships and noting initial examples or questions. The written analysis is due on October 21st, after which students will find supporting articles and gather textual evidence to fully develop their theory-based reading of the novel.

English 102 Essay 4: Literary Research Essay Assignment (First Draft)
Your last written assignment for this class is a 6 to 8-page, 1,500 to 1,800-word research essay on a current issue or an enduring question of your choice. The First Draft should be Five to Ten paragraphs in length and does not require the use of sources. You will use documented source material to support your essay’s thesis.
One of your sources for this essay must be chosen from among the stories, poems, plays, or novel listed on our reading list (please see the Syllabus). A research essay presents and develops a thesis supporting multiple sources of opinion. You stake out a subject narrow enough to be researched and you steep yourself in it. Then you formulate a thesis -- your own attitude or opinion on the subject -- and present it in a persuasive form, along with facts, opinions, and information that prove it true. You should use appeals and other methods to support your thesis, but you should also analyze each source you plan to use to support your thesis.
THE PARTS OF A RESEARCH ESSAY
There are two parts to a Research Essay:
The text (six or more pages and 1,500 to 1,800 words)
The works cited page (one or more pages)
RESEARCH ESSAY FORMAT
Much of the writing in your research essay comes from the work of other writers, and you must give proper credit by citing (mentioning) these sources in your paper. The art of citing is called documentation, which is required for any information falling into the following three categories:
Any judgment, opinion, speculation or theory that is not original (unless it is universally known and accepted).
Any fact or statistic open to dispute.
Any information provided by a specific observer, even by an expert in his or her field (for example, opinions of psychologists on child abuse).
QUOTATIONS AND CITATIONS
You will use quotations to include information from your sources in your essay. For example, if you were quoting a Newsweek magazine article on the Virgin Mary by Kenneth L. Woodward, you could write:
Kenneth L. Woodward, in his article on the Virgin Mary, writes that "the 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
According to Kenneth L. Woodward, the 20th century has "belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
Kenneth L. Woodward writes: "The 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
You will use the MLA (Modern Languages Association) style for parenthetical documentation to list your sources on your Works Cited page, which is the last page of your essay.
You must use at least four sources (one or more from each of the following categories) and list them on your works cited page:
one book;
one periodical (magazine, journal or newspaper) article;
one website;
one “multimedia” source: a film, video, DVD, painting, musical piece, etc.).
These sources should be listed in alphabetical order, by the author's last name.

Please review the
overview of critical methodologies
(BELOW)
For more information on Critical Methodologies, please read the introduction to the Critical Methodologies
Overview of Critical Methodologies
Imagine 3 pairs of glasses, and each pair of glasses represents a different “lens” through which the wearer of the glasses can view the world. Same world...different view based on the color of the lens.
Critical methodologies (also known as critical approaches) function in the same way. In a nutshell, critical methodologies are different LENSES through which a reader can examine a particular text (short story, poem, play, novel, etc.). Alison Booth and Kelly J. Mays, the editors of our textbook, classify critical approaches into four major categories:
Critical approaches that emphasize the text,
Critical approaches that emphasize the source,
Critical approaches that emphasize the receiver, and
Critical approaches that highlight historical and ideological criticism.
Each major category houses a number of critical approaches.
Emphasis on the Text - This approach limits the consideration of outside elements- author background, social factors, etc.
New Criticism - does not take into consideration source (author) or reader (you)
Structuralism
Poststructuralism
Deconstruction
Narrative Theory
Emphasis on the Source - This approach takes into consideration the author and author’s intention in writing the work.
Biographical Criticism
Example: Lorraine Hansberry’s personally experience fighting restrictive covenants
Example: Toni Morrison’s own journey of racial self-discovery in the South
Psychoanalytic Criticism (Freudian, Jungian and Myth, and Lacanian)
Freudian - our human psyches share similar histories)
Jungian -
the concept of the universal conscious/collective unconscious
universal patterns and forms of human experiences known as “archetypes.”
examples: rebirth story, hero’s quest, doubling, etc.
Northrop Frye - archetypal criticism
Big question: Are there “shared, fundamental truths” that cross the boundaries of race, culture, nationality? Examples - Flood myth
Emphasis on the Receiver -The emphasis of this approach is the way in which the reader “receives,” interprets, and appreciates the text.
Reader-Response Criticism
Historical and Ideological Criticism - This approach takes into consideration the historical and cultural context(s) of a work.
Marxist Criticism
Feminist Criticism
Gender Studies and Queer Theory
African American and Ethnic Literary Studies
New Historicism
Cultural Studies
Postcolonial .

Write a brief (200 word essay) on two of the following five essay .docx
Write a brief (200 word essay) on two of the following five essay topics:
1. What are some of the stereotypes about people who join NRMs? Why do you think such stereotypes develop?
2. In chapter three, Dawson reframes the problem of the rise of NRMs during the late 1960s and ‘70s using the admittedly highly abstract theories of sociologist Anthony Giddens. Summarize Dawson’s use of Giddens in your own words. How is this approach different from Dawson’s account of the importance of the social context for the rise of NRMs presented earlier in the chapter?
3. Based on the discussion in Dawson, briefly outline William McLoughlin’s theory of periodic religious revivals in the United States. What does McLoughlin think about the prospect of future revivals?
4. Pick three of the demographic categories that scholars have applied to NRMs and discuss and evaluate the theories scholars have given for their findings in each category (e.g. the youth of most NRM converts is due to the fact that this is a time when people lack real world responsibilities).
5. Are sociologists of religion justified in ignoring or discounting the reasons members give for joining an NRM in favor of unconscious motivations?

Book Review
This document provides a book review of Bruce Ackerman's work "Social Justice in the Liberal State". The reviewer summarizes that Ackerman attempts to construct a liberal theory of justice and law based on a method of "neutral dialogue". He outlines Ackerman's key principles of rationality, consistency and neutrality that are meant to guide this dialogue. However, the reviewer is ultimately critical of Ackerman's overreliance on dialogue as a justificatory method, arguing that dialogue alone provides no real justification and that the substantive values being discussed are more important.

This document discusses various aspects of critical reading such as:
- Critical reading involves carefully analyzing a text to understand its meaning and assess its merits. This includes understanding the author's intent, structure, word choices, and more.
- There are explicit details directly stated in the text as well as implicit details not directly stated that require reading between the lines.
- Claims can be of fact, value, or policy and should be argumentative, specific, interesting, and logical.
- Critical reading skills include distinguishing fact from opinion, identifying purpose and tone, and making inferences. Context and how texts reference or are modeled on each other is also important for understanding.

This document provides an overview of critical reading skills. It defines critical reading as a close analysis of a text to fully understand it and evaluate its merits. This involves asking questions about the author's intent, structure, word meanings, and more. The document outlines different types of information in a text, such as explicit vs implicit details. It also defines key concepts like claims, inferences, context, hypertext, intertextuality, and using textual evidence to support ideas. The overall goal is to teach learners how to closely analyze a text and support their perspectives.
Essay #2 addresses some topic in the broad scope of Transcendentalis.docx
Essay #2 addresses some topic in the broad scope of Transcendentalism.
Essay #2 has similar parameters -- length/outside source requirements, drafting process -- as Essay #1.
You are always free to develop your own topic approach within the Transcendentalism topic.
Some suggestive options:
1) Analyze Thoreau's "Civil Disobedience" in light of a contemporary example or figure or incident in the tradition of American civil disobedience.
2) Analyze the persuasive and rhetorical strategies of one of the transcendental pieces (or King's "Letter") that we have read. You might look at issues of audience, style, emotional vs./and rational appeal, appeals to history/tradition or rejection of history/tradtion, metaphoric style, tone and so forth. If you deem them successful, why/how do they succeed in arguing their points? What might be points of counterargument or criticism or weaknesses in their approach? Does it work as a piece of argument/writing?
3) Pick one (or several if you feel it's appropriate) key concepts or quotes from a work (or several works) and discuss the concept/quote in terms of how it has evolved or put it in larger context. How have these words taken form in our laws, practice, literature, or culture? Where are the gaps between the great ideals of these writers' words and the reality of their times and/or ours? e.g. How might MLK (in light of his "Letter") feel about the society and civil rights situation we see today?
4) You could pick one, two, or three key themes from any of the works and discuss how the text fleshes out these themes and why they are important to our understanding of the period, or the particular writer, or to transcendentalism as a movement, or to American tradition or literature and so forth.
5) You could pick a theme which runs through several of the texts (for example, something about the role or nature of the individual) and trace it through its different configuration and representations.
Essay length: 4-5 pages -- again, I'm always more concerned with minimum than limiting any maximum length.
Include outside critical sources.

Introduction to Sociology – Final PaperObjective of Paper Thi.docx
Introduction to Sociology – Final Paper
Objective of Paper: This is a standard research paper based on secondary and primary sources. It should address its topic from a sociological perspective. This means that whatever topic you pick should be discussed using terminology from the readings and class discussions, should be critically examined (meaning its construction, labels, and groups should be discussed and critiqued), and should be placed in a larger context based on what we’ve read and the material we’ve discussed.
Format: The paper must be typed in Times New Roman font, size 12, double-spaced. Points will be deducted for not following these specifications. Do not use color, include images, or provide a cover page. List your name, the course name, and the term at the top of the page, then write your title, then begin the paper. Papers must be at least 6 pages (not including the reference page). Points will be deducted if papers less than 6 and exceed 9 pages.
Citation Style: All citations (to be discussed later in this document) should be in American Sociological Association (ASA) format. See this website: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/583/02/ for information on in-text citations as well as reference page formatting (you’ll have to click on a link to get to the reference page specifications). All citations must appear in the text. You cannot simply list them all at the end of the paper. If you take an idea or a quote from an author, you must cite that author in the text and include her in the reference page as well. Failure to properly cite will result in point deductions.
Layout of Paper: The paper should be divided into FIVE parts:
· Introduction: You will introduce your topic and briefly describe it. You must also tell the reader:
· Why this topic should be interesting to an average reader (e.g., why should I care about the history of the “insanity” please in US courts if I am not a lawyer?)
· Why the topic is sociological
· Literature Review: Since you are probably not the first person to research this topic, you should do some reading of past authors’ works. You should give a summary of their works and explain why it is important to be aware of their works before doing your own research on your topic. You must use a minimum of 4 sources in your literature review. Also, you may only use academic sources or government publications. Acceptable sources are: academic books, journal articles from peer-reviewed journals, and government publications. Unacceptable sources include (but are not limited to): magazines, newspapers, blogs, “.com” websites, online news articles, or non-academic books. There are two major types of literature to look for:
· Literature which covers your topic specifically
· Literature which covers a topic somewhat related to your topic, but which helps you understand your own topic. For instance, if I’m writing a paper on a specific “Doomsday Cult” in Texas, I might end up with a lot of literature.

English 102 Essay 4 Literary Research Essay Assignment (First Draft.docx
English 102 Essay 4: Literary Research Essay Assignment (First Draft)
Your last written assignment for this class is a 6 to 8-page, 1,500 to 1,800-word research essay on a current issue or an enduring question of your choice. The First Draft should be Five to Ten paragraphs in length and does not require the use of sources. You will use documented source material to support your essay’s thesis.
One of your sources for this essay must be chosen from among the stories, poems, plays, or novel listed on our reading list (please see the Syllabus). A research essay presents and develops a thesis supporting multiple sources of opinion. You stake out a subject narrow enough to be researched and you steep yourself in it. Then you formulate a thesis -- your own attitude or opinion on the subject -- and present it in a persuasive form, along with facts, opinions, and information that prove it true. You should use appeals and other methods to support your thesis, but you should also analyze each source you plan to use to support your thesis.
THE PARTS OF A RESEARCH ESSAY
There are two parts to a Research Essay:
The text (six or more pages and 1,500 to 1,800 words)
The works cited page (one or more pages)
RESEARCH ESSAY FORMAT
Much of the writing in your research essay comes from the work of other writers, and you must give proper credit by citing (mentioning) these sources in your paper. The art of citing is called documentation, which is required for any information falling into the following three categories:
Any judgment, opinion, speculation or theory that is not original (unless it is universally known and accepted).
Any fact or statistic open to dispute.
Any information provided by a specific observer, even by an expert in his or her field (for example, opinions of psychologists on child abuse).
QUOTATIONS AND CITATIONS
You will use quotations to include information from your sources in your essay. For example, if you were quoting a Newsweek magazine article on the Virgin Mary by Kenneth L. Woodward, you could write:
Kenneth L. Woodward, in his article on the Virgin Mary, writes that "the 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
According to Kenneth L. Woodward, the 20th century has "belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
Kenneth L. Woodward writes: "The 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
You will use the MLA (Modern Languages Association) style for parenthetical documentation to list your sources on your Works Cited page, which is the last page of your essay.
You must use at least four sources (one or more from each of the following categories) and list them on your works cited page:
one book;
one periodical (magazine, journal or newspaper) article;
one website;
one “multimedia” source: a film, video, DVD, painting, musical piece, etc.).

English 102 Essay 4: Literary Research Essay Assignment (First Draft)
Your last written assignment for this class is a 6 to 8-page, 1,500 to 1,800-word research essay on a current issue or an enduring question of your choice. The First Draft should be Five to Ten paragraphs in length and does not require the use of sources. You will use documented source material to support your essay’s thesis.
One of your sources for this essay must be chosen from among the stories, poems, plays, or novel listed on our reading list (please see the Syllabus). A research essay presents and develops a thesis supporting multiple sources of opinion. You stake out a subject narrow enough to be researched and you steep yourself in it. Then you formulate a thesis -- your own attitude or opinion on the subject -- and present it in a persuasive form, along with facts, opinions, and information that prove it true. You should use appeals and other methods to support your thesis, but you should also analyze each source you plan to use to support your thesis.
THE PARTS OF A RESEARCH ESSAY
There are two parts to a Research Essay:
The text (six or more pages and 1,500 to 1,800 words)
The works cited page (one or more pages)
RESEARCH ESSAY FORMAT
Much of the writing in your research essay comes from the work of other writers, and you must give proper credit by citing (mentioning) these sources in your paper. The art of citing is called documentation, which is required for any information falling into the following three categories:
Any judgment, opinion, speculation or theory that is not original (unless it is universally known and accepted).
Any fact or statistic open to dispute.
Any information provided by a specific observer, even by an expert in his or her field (for example, opinions of psychologists on child abuse).
QUOTATIONS AND CITATIONS
You will use quotations to include information from your sources in your essay. For example, if you were quoting a Newsweek magazine article on the Virgin Mary by Kenneth L. Woodward, you could write:
Kenneth L. Woodward, in his article on the Virgin Mary, writes that "the 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
According to Kenneth L. Woodward, the 20th century has "belonged to Mary" (49).
Or…..
Kenneth L. Woodward writes: "The 20th century has belonged to Mary" (49).
You will use the MLA (Modern Languages Association) style for parenthetical documentation to list your sources on your Works Cited page, which is the last page of your essay.
You must use at least four sources (one or more from each of the following categories) and list them on your works cited page:
one book;
one periodical (magazine, journal or newspaper) article;
one website;
one “multimedia” source: a film, video, DVD, painting, musical piece, etc.).
These sources should be ...

Please review the
overview of critical methodologies
(BELOW)
For more information on Critical Methodologies, please read the introduction to the Critical Methodologies
Overview of Critical Methodologies
Imagine 3 pairs of glasses, and each pair of glasses represents a different “lens” through which the wearer of the glasses can view the world. Same world...different view based on the color of the lens.
Critical methodologies (also known as critical approaches) function in the same way. In a nutshell, critical methodologies are different LENSES through which a reader can examine a particular text (short story, poem, play, novel, etc.). Alison Booth and Kelly J. Mays, the editors of our textbook, classify critical approaches into four major categories:
Critical approaches that emphasize the text,
Critical approaches that emphasize the source,
Critical approaches that emphasize the receiver, and
Critical approaches that highlight historical and ideological criticism.
Each major category houses a number of critical approaches.
Emphasis on the Text - This approach limits the consideration of outside elements- author background, social factors, etc.
New Criticism - does not take into consideration source (author) or reader (you)
Structuralism
Poststructuralism
Deconstruction
Narrative Theory
Emphasis on the Source - This approach takes into consideration the author and author’s intention in writing the work.
Biographical Criticism
Example: Lorraine Hansberry’s personally experience fighting restrictive covenants
Example: Toni Morrison’s own journey of racial self-discovery in the South
Psychoanalytic Criticism (Freudian, Jungian and Myth, and Lacanian)
Freudian - our human psyches share similar histories)
Jungian -
the concept of the universal conscious/collective unconscious
universal patterns and forms of human experiences known as “archetypes.”
examples: rebirth story, hero’s quest, doubling, etc.
Northrop Frye - archetypal criticism
Big question: Are there “shared, fundamental truths” that cross the boundaries of race, culture, nationality? Examples - Flood myth
Emphasis on the Receiver -The emphasis of this approach is the way in which the reader “receives,” interprets, and appreciates the text.
Reader-Response Criticism
Historical and Ideological Criticism - This approach takes into consideration the historical and cultural context(s) of a work.
Marxist Criticism
Feminist Criticism
Gender Studies and Queer Theory
African American and Ethnic Literary Studies
New Historicism
Cultural Studies
Postcolonial .

Write a brief (200 word essay) on two of the following five essay .docx
Write a brief (200 word essay) on two of the following five essay topics:
1. What are some of the stereotypes about people who join NRMs? Why do you think such stereotypes develop?
2. In chapter three, Dawson reframes the problem of the rise of NRMs during the late 1960s and ‘70s using the admittedly highly abstract theories of sociologist Anthony Giddens. Summarize Dawson’s use of Giddens in your own words. How is this approach different from Dawson’s account of the importance of the social context for the rise of NRMs presented earlier in the chapter?
3. Based on the discussion in Dawson, briefly outline William McLoughlin’s theory of periodic religious revivals in the United States. What does McLoughlin think about the prospect of future revivals?
4. Pick three of the demographic categories that scholars have applied to NRMs and discuss and evaluate the theories scholars have given for their findings in each category (e.g. the youth of most NRM converts is due to the fact that this is a time when people lack real world responsibilities).
5. Are sociologists of religion justified in ignoring or discounting the reasons members give for joining an NRM in favor of unconscious motivations?
Grading Rubric: Each writing assignment must be 200 words long and graded on the following criteria:

Book Review
This document provides a book review of Bruce Ackerman's work "Social Justice in the Liberal State". The reviewer summarizes that Ackerman attempts to construct a liberal theory of justice and law based on a method of "neutral dialogue". He outlines Ackerman's key principles of rationality, consistency and neutrality that are meant to guide this dialogue. However, the reviewer is ultimately critical of Ackerman's overreliance on dialogue as a justificatory method, arguing that dialogue alone provides no real justification and that the substantive values being discussed are more important.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution. In languages like Python, this issue arises when the specified module cannot be found or accessed, hindering the program's functionality. Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
