As in your previous essay assignments, be sure that you develop and adhere to a clearly identifiable focus and purpose, and that you provide sufficient evidence from the texts of the plays to support or verify the position you adopt in your argument. Also, be certain that you have correctly documented all references to the dramas. Review “Document Sources Using MLA Style,” beginning on page 1978 of the Kennedy and Gioia text, and follow these guidelines:
create a clear and limiting title (a title page will not be necessary)
double-space your essay
use standard margins
number your pages
set off and indent ten spaces, and double space quoted material over three lines
proofread your essay carefully.
