The Annotated Bibliography is the first step in your literary research paper.  In order to complete the research paper, you must be sure that you can find an adequate number of scholarly sources to support your claims.

In this assignment, you will present your research sources along with annotations to explain their relevance to your project.

The topic and thesis of your project should be listed at the top of the assignment.  You can choose from any of the selections in the Topics for Long Papers category presented in your text on pages 1195-1200. 

Then, find at least six scholarly sources that you plan to use as evidence to support your research.  Primary sources (the literary texts themselves) should also be listed in your final works cited page and may be listed here, but they do not count toward your total of six critical sources. 

Once you have chosen a topic, find at least six scholarly sources that you plan to use as evidence to support your research.  Primary sources (the literary texts themselves) should also be listed in your final works cited page and may be listed here, but they do not count toward your total of six critical sources.  You need six secondary sources to help you analyze the literary texts that you plan to work with in the assignment.
