Due Now: "Marx for Beginners" in its entirety. This does not need to go on your Bibliography. Read it like McCLoud taught you.
Due Now: "On Dumpster Diving," by Lars Eighner, in 50 Essays. Do I need to remind you to put it on your Bibliography?
Due Friday: Common Place Assignment #1. Typed, of course.
Due Monday: "Why Don't We Complain?" by William F. Buckley, Jr. Bib info to follow.
Due Monday: Vocab 2

So I am looking at the bibliography and I am trying to see if there is anything that we read that I am missing (and also if there are people that need a more complete list than they've got that I made one :) ). These are the titles I have so far:
ReplyDelete-On Compassion
-Joy of Reading
-Happy Endings
-Female Body
-Lost in the Kitchen
-I Want a Wife
-Myth of the Latin Woman
-Learning to Read and Write
-On Dumpster Diving
-How it Feels to Be Colored Me
-I Have a Dream
-Letter from Birmingham Jail
-No Name Woman
-On Being a Cripple
-Learning to Read
-Show and Tell
-I Just Wanna Be Average
-Declaration of Sentiments and Resolutions
-Just Walk On By
-Grapes of Wrath
-Huck Finn
So I was missing the Communist Manifesto (thank you Caitlyn)and then Mr. Kline said that there should be 23 entries. Is the 23rd the "Why Don't We Complain?" essay in 50 essays?
DeleteThanks. Got it :)
DeleteMcKenna, I greatly appreciate your valiant efforts to use the blog as a tool to improve your chances of success in this class. Keep at it, and one day your classmates will step up.
ReplyDeleteI think you're missing the Communist Manifesto. I don't see it on your list.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of questions about the Common Place Assignment. I am doing mine on the fiscal cliff and I've used some other sources to get the background on what it is. Can I put the background information in my paper? Do I have to cite the website I got it from?
ReplyDeleteIt says on the sheet to cite it in MLA format.
DeleteSince the only writing you're doing is a summary of the article you read, you don't need to cite any background reading you do to make the article make sense. As Jocelyn noted, you DO need to cite the article itself.
DeleteSpeaking of bibliographies, I have come to realize that I have no idea how to cite Communist Manifesto. How do you format two authors? And do I put the name of the chapters in the quotation marks and italicize The Communist Manifesto? Yelp.
ReplyDeleteJocelyn, if you scroll down the blog a little it has the format for citing the Communist Manifesto, good luck!
ReplyDeleteFor the essay "Why Don't We Complain" by William F. Buckley Jr. How do we format the author's name? would it be Buckley, William? Do we need the Jr. or the middle initial
ReplyDeleteYou'd format his name the same way you format Martin Luther King, Jr.'s name.
DeleteSo I am trying to do the vocab 2 assignment, and I was wondering what I should do when the dictionary definition is the same way that I would define it. Should I just put the dictionary definition as my definition, or find a way to rephrase it?
