You may use any of the materials that we have read together in class. In addition, you must locate one critical essay from a peer-reviewed source (an essay in an academic journal, such as Modernism/Modernity or a chapter in a book published by a university press). You must cite the critical essay at least once in your essay – but remember, you’re making an argument, not writing about someone else’s argument.[unique_solution] Your paper will naturally have a Works Cited list at the end.
