4. You are required to use three sources from the library’s online databases on the Othello essay due in Unit 6. So to get you started on your research, we are going to do two annotated bibliographies over sources you think you might use.
For this unit find two sources that might be helpful to your paper, read them carefully, and submit in this unit two annotated bibliographies on these essays by the date on the calendar. The annotated bibs can be on the same page, but they must be on one file. (If you try to submit two different times, the last submit will take the place of the first.) Be sure that they follow the correct form stipulated in the lecture and the sample. To figure out how to do the works-cited part, you will see a “cite” button on the database article page. Be sure to choose the MLA option.
(To find the right databases, click on the library link here. Find the databases under the field “Literature.” This will take you to the best databases for your sources. My particular favorite database is JSTOR. It has a great deal on Shakespeare. However, the other literary databases may be just as helpful.)
Note that the essays you will find are outside or secondary sources–criticism on the play. They do not have to be sources that you will use in the paper; they are sources that you are considering. In other words, they do need to cover some aspect of the play, but you don’t have to use them in your paper.
If you haven’t decided on a topic yet, do some research on an aspect of the play you find interesting or puzzling. Often research will help you find your topic.
Tip: Use the advanced search option with the library’s databases. For example, you might not find anything just by searching “Brabantio“; however, if you search “Desdemona and father,” you may get several essays that discuss Brabantio. You must be determined, though. If you need help, contact the library or post a question in the “question/answer” area of our discussion page. Start early and don’t give up!
