Summing up today's class, as you revise your Macbeth essay make sure that you include proper citation, both inline parenthetical references and bibliographic information at the end of the paper, in the form of a works cited page or bibliography. Additionally, make sure that you have a clear and pointed thesis that takes a position.
Regarding citation and MLA Formatting here are a handful of links that will help you:
- Purdue University’s Online Writing Laboratory – has a great article about MLA formatting and all other issues regarding MLA citation, including links at the bottom of the page for different kinds of sources
- St. Cloud State University – some more specific information on inline parenthetical citation
- Long Island University – includes a simple color coded guide to bibliographic information for a works cited list
Shakespeare's text online:
- MIT's Complete Works of Shakespeare - every play by the Bard, although no line numbers
Finally, make sure that you have proofread your work and addressed all known standard conventions of the written English.
Remember, the new deadline is Thursday, December 13.
