What does the lens show you about the story?

Literary Analysis Essay – Critical Theory and InquiryPurpose and IntroductionIn a literary analysis, the idea is to carefully analyze a work of literature and create an interesting, original argument about the text. It’s an exercise in finding an implied message from a text that doesn’t state this directly. This skill applies in a number of practical ways in life.In this essay, you will use a literary theory to shape a critical analysis of a text read for this class. Remember, this essay is not about the literary theory. Your task is to apply the theory to a story. What does the lens show you about the story?Let the theory and story guide a process of inquiry. There are a few ways to approach this.1. Begin with the story. You may have questions about the text that you can answer by looking at the work through a specific lens.2. Choose a theory that interests you and reread the story with the theory in mind.3. Apply the theory to a character or specific passage of the story.Your goal is to use the theory to inform your perspective and make an argument about the work.PromptUse a recognized literary criticism lens to write a 1000-1250 word research-based literary analysis of one of the Raymond Carver stories read for this class: “Cathedral” or “What We Talk About When We Talk About Love” or “Neighbors” or “Why Don’t You Dance?” Use two secondary sources to help support this argument.The critical lens and text are up to you. A list of the critical theories we explore in this class is listed below.Critical Theories:o Formalist Criticismo Biographical Criticismo Gender/Feminist CriticismSupport (Evidence)Your essay must have the following:• 1 primary source: the Carver story you choose (minimum 4 quotes)• 2 secondary sources (minimum 1 quotes each)o Secondary sources should be from the YTC Library A-Z databases (Bloom’s Literature, the Literary Reference Center, and Short Stories for Students are all highly recommended).

Describe the measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and dispersion (variance, standard deviation) for each of your variables.

The discussion prompt is a mini-assignment where students post statistical analyses conducted via SPSS. The instructor then gives feedback within the discussion as a response post. Once feedback is given, students are able to make corrections (if needed) within response posts to the instructor’s feedback. If no corrections are needed, students should respond and acknowledge they have read the instructor’s feedback.Initial Discussion posts are due Wednesday. All interaction and corrections should be completed by Sunday. There is no interaction with peers. The responses are only visible to each individual student and the instructor. Initial posts should be thorough, completing all tasks given in the discussion prompt. All posts should demonstrate college-level writing skills. You can review the general Discussion Guidelines here as well.Now that you have imported GSS 2018 dataset into your SPSS and have learned how to use SPSS or the GSS data explorer to find out GSS variable information, you are going to create and post a frequency table, chart, and descriptives table (central tendency/dispersion) of your variables. Complete the following steps:1. Give your discussion a unique title specific to your study/variables. Post a brief explanation of your topic which includes a bit of information about your variables: level of measurement, answer categories (yes/no, strongly agree, disagree, etc.), as well as the survey question used to collect data for this particular variable (refer to Discussion 1).2. Include a frequency table for each of your variables. Explain your outputs in no more than 5 sentences for each variable. Cite numbers in the outputs to support your conclusion. When you cite %, use the % reported in “valid percent” column.3. Describe the measures of central tendency (mean, median, mode) and dispersion (variance, standard deviation) for each of your variables. Based on what you have learned in the readings and lessons this week, identify the best measures for each variable and explain what they tell us. What do these measures summarize for us about the variable’s data?4. Presenting your data in graphic form is also important when conducting quantitative research. Based on what you have learned from the reading and the weekly lesson, create a graphic representation of your data. Your choice of graphing tool is purely based on a variable’s level of measurement. Explain your outputs for each variable. It is OK if your explanation is similar to (but not the same as) the frequency table interpretation, since a chart is a different data presentation on the SAME variable. Cite numbers in the outputs to support your conclusion.5. Copy all of the frequency tables and charts into the discussion window or into a document (PDF, MS Word) and attach to discussion. If your table/chart does not fit to the page, choose “copy special” and then “images” or take a screen shot of the table/chart. Paste images to a Word document.
