FAULKNER uses a number of gothic elements in this plot: the imposing decrepit house, the decayed corpse, and the mysterious secret horrors connected with Emily’s life. How do these elements forward the plot and establish the atmosphere?
All essays should be 800-1000 words; at least 5 paragraphs, all of which are approximately the same length; have a clear and specific thesis statement within a fully developed introduction; have specific and relevant details which demonstrate and prove the thesis statement; an absence of grammar and sentence errors (proofreading/editing is a MUST–no exceptions); correct format (MLA–see pages 21-30 in your textbook). It should also be noted that you will often need to quote from text to support your assertions or examples. I will be expecting to see a minimum of 3 quotes in each essay. There are sample student essays on pages 21-23 (short story), pages 24-26 (poetry) and pages 27-30 (drama). They will show you how to use quotes and document them correctly. There are also examples in your textbook of how to do a works cited page
