Assignment Instructions:
Read "Show Me Love: On Sexuality and Being a Lonely Brown Girl" by Eswaran (posted on Brightspace), identify and summarize the central argument presented there, and apply it to pages 19 (beginning with the paragraph that starts, "It had begun with Christmas and the gift of dolls...") to 23 of Morrison's The Bluest Eye. Your response should have three sections:
Section 1: In the first section, you will situate the article and paraphrase its main argument or controlling idea.
Section 2: In the second section (2-3 paragraphs), summarize two of the sub-points or examples of that main argument, showing how the author's central argument is expanded in these two sub-points or example and how she specifically makes the case for different types of love and desire.
Section 3: In the final section, you will apply at least one of the author's ideas to the above noted excerpt from Morrison. You must explain how the article's argument informs or expand your understanding of Morrison's passage.
You must quote both your secondary text and primary text. Provide a works cited page that includes both the article and Morrison's book.
The goal and terms of evaluation:
1) To be able to sift through a complex argument to isolate and describe the key, central insight and argument;
2) To identify and manage the author's secondary applications or illustrations of that central argument; and
3) To use that insight for your own purposes, in which case you are evaluated on the basis of your understanding and application of argument.
This last section will take some work in judging how/which parts of the passage from Eswaran and Morrison are best suited for your argument.
