Seminar 8
This seminar is a bit different. Instead of discussing a question, we will discuss the essay plans of anyone who prepares on in advance and brings it to the seminar.
Preparation
- Identify a question for your long essay,
- do some background reading;
- and produce an outline for the essay
- including a statement of the thesis your essay will defend
- plus a list of readings.
Questions
You can take one of the suggested questions from the list provided:
Or, if you prefer, you can propose your own question (which will need to be approved before you can submit the essay).
Hint
Ensure that your plan specifies ideas and arguments in detail. A wishlist is not a plan.
