Homework
ok. Last night for the research paper. Be sure to check the research paper guidelines, download a 2nd copy from the blog.
Here are some continual questions/answers:
Q: Do I have to pass in all the sections together?
A: Yes. This is one research paper with a cover page, at least five pages of writing, and a works cited page. Print and upload this paper as one document.
Q: Do I have to cite information that I put into my own words?
A: Uh...yes.
Q: Does this paper need an introduction?
A: To quote Kool-Aid Man, "Oh Yeah." Before the first section of RASH, give an overview of the paper: what was researched, why research is important, and that the paper investigates Romeo and Juliet.
Q: Who is that Harold Bloom on the (R) section?
A: He is a "famous" Shakespearian critic, and many of the books we have been using are written or edited by him. You only need to write about Zeffirelli and Garrick for the final section.
Q: What about the titles for all the sections?
A: On the board today, there was an outline of how it might look. See below:

...Shakespeare died in 1616, and was buried in the same Stratford Church where he
was baptized. Unfortunately, we may never know whose body rests in the tomb
since Shakespeare wrote an epithet that curses anyone who dares "disturb these
bones" (Chapman 23).
Astrology in Elizabethan England
(tab)The power of Shakespeare's last words have remained to this day. While
people today might not be scared of a curse, this prevented anyone in Stratford
from opening the grave. In the late 16th century, people believed that their lives
were "governed by the stars" (Lackland 23). Shakespeare includes these popular
ideas in Romeo and Juliet as the title characters live and die because of fate found
in the sky.
