Guidelines for the Analytical Essay:
Assignment: Students are expected to write two 5-6 page essays which result from students investigating, analyzing, and evaluating the historical periods and/or themes discussed in class. Papers should include a works cited page with at least five primary sources used by students to prove essay thesis.
Purpose: To develop the student’s power of judgment by studying the past not merely as a collection of facts but as a human narrative with meaning that calls for interpretation and value judgments.
Style: Each essay will be 1500 to 1800 words long (roughly 5-6 pages if you have 1” margins, 12 font, Times New Roman, and double-spaced). Papers should be double-spaced and make use of footnotes to cite texts. Parenthetical references are not to be used.
