~from The Curious Researcher by Bruce Ballenger
Your Task:
For this assignment, you will spend time deeply investigating a topic of interest related to the larger theme of this course, which is focused on The Lost Generation in Paris in the 1920s (as introduced in the books Paris France by Gertrude Stein, and The Book of Salt, by Monique Truong). You will choose a topic, narrow your focus down to an arguable thesis, conduct research, learn about your topic, write an annotated bibliography, and then you will write a paper and, in groups, give a short presentation about your findings before and possibly during finals week.
You will need to construct a point/argument for your essay, and it should lead back to the overarching topic of this section of the class: The Lost Generation. For example, you might pose a question that you will turn into your Thesis (main point): What makes ____________ a part of The Lost Generation? OR Why is ____________ a unique reflection of The Lost Generation? How was _____ a direct result of the effects of and attitudes after WW1 and The Lost Generation? Etc.
