Literature Essay, critical analysis of “Araby” by James Joyce.

Your research paper assignment is to read “Araby” by the Irish writer James Joyce (in Backpack Literature 296-301) and write a critical analysis of it, following the guidelines we have established in class. Make it a research paper by finding information about the writer and his work, critical reactions to the material, or information about the issues the material presents. Bear in mind that Post-Colonial/Ethnic Critics look between the lines of Irish literature for evidence of England’s long domination of Ireland, just as they examine American Southern literature for evidence of racial attitudes.

The paper should be about 1250 words (5 pages double-spaced); please submit the paper by email as well as turning in a paper copy in class.

– You should include a Works Cited which lists, according to MLA rules, the short story itself, along with four other sources.

– Your research paper should include a total of ten quotes from your sources, correctly cited according to MLA procedure.
