Poetry paper

This is a 2-3 page MLA formatted paper, minimum 5 well-written college level paragraphs, on the poem you have chosen from the list provided. Again, the 2-3 pages refers to the body of the paper, and not the Works Cited page. The poems listed are all found in your literature textbook. I would advise choosing a poem that you enjoy.

You are to give a biography on the poet, a short summary detailing what the poem is about, and then critique the poem either line by line, or stanza by stanza depending on the length of the poem.

In other words, a short poem is critiqued line by line, while a lengthy poem would be critiqued stanza by stanza.

Do NOT include the poem, or write it out. That is not needed. When critiquing refer to the poem as line 2 states, or stanza 3 states.

At least 3 references from the above mentioned must be cited on your Works Cited page. Your textbook is NOT to be listed as a reference source.

Wikipedia is NOT allowed and will result in either a failing grade on the paper, or in the class.

The poetry paper is to be submitted by the due date. No late papers will be accepted; however, you may submit your paper prior to the due date. Early submission is strongly encouraged.

Be sure to save in WORD and your last name, first name; otherwise, one letter grade lower.

You may turn your paper in earlier than the due date, however, no late papers will be accepted after the due date.

Paper on poetry

This is a 2-3 page MLA formatted paper with at least 5 well-written college level paragraphs on the poetry you choose from the list. Again, the 2-3 pages refer to the paper’s body, not the Works Cited page. All of the poems on this list can be found in your literature textbook. I would recommend selecting a poem that you appreciate.

You must provide a biography of the poet, a brief synopsis of the poem’s content, and a critique of the poem, either line by line or stanza by stanza, depending on the length of the poem.

To put it another way, a short poetry is critiqued line by line, but a longer poem is critiqued stanza by stanza.
