Marxism in The Great Gatsby Assignment | Get Paper Help

PAPER: Each student will write a paper on the novel, consisting of a minimum of 2,000 words and incorporating at least five scholarly secondary sources from JSTOR and JSTOR only. In the paper, the student must apply Karl Marx’s Theory on Marxism. The paper must be written in 3rd person only.

To better illustrate the level of analysis and application you should be doing in this paper, I have attached some student samples. Some are on poems and short stories; one is on a novel. All use research and apply theory (as desired). Some are quite old, so I do not remember the grades they earned, but all were As and Bs. None are perfect, and one is a draft with my marginal comments. Yet, they all show what it looks like to apply theory to a text and create a unique argument.

Review them to see how nuanced and specific their thesis statements are, to learn how they are using research to support their claims, and to get a general sense of what I am looking for.
