Requirement: (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)
LENGTH: 1200 (minimum) to 1500 words. Essays shorter than the minimum will suffer a penalty of 4% per 100 words. Essays should be double-spaced, size 12 font, 1 inch (25 mm) left and right margins,
etc. Use Canadian spelling. Quote, but use brief quotations rather than large blocks of text. Ensure that all quotations are pertinent, adequately introduced and well integrated. Base your analysis
on your own reading of the novels in question; the essay should be the product of each student’s own application and reading. Any secondary sources used should be acknowledged as such to avoid the
possibility of being charged with academic fraud. See https://www.uottawa.ca/plagiarism.pdf. (Be sure to use secondary sources if you need to support your argument in some way in terms of factual
information from outside the text). If you refer to the Introduction, note that it was not written by Montgomery herself.
Cite and document your sources using the MLA parenthetical method. (See https://library.concordia.ca/help/citing/mla.php and/or https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01/ for help with
this). Provide a proper title at the top of your first page, and a separate Works Cited page.
Be sure that your essay has a central argument (your thesis) that drives it. That is, it should have a point, not merely be a series of observations. Unexcused late essays will be penalized 10% a
day (including weekends and holidays). That is, an essay potentially scoring 12/15 that is submitted one day late will have its grade reduced to 10.5/15. Work more than one (unexcused) week late
will not be accepted.
