Multigenre Literary Project
English I Pre-AP
Your 5th six weeks project is to create a multigenre paper based upon a work of literature
You must do three things:
read/reread the work,
research criticism about the work, the historical time in which the work was written, and the author
write a multigenre paper that explores and communicates through imaginative genres the content and themes of the literature, as well as historical/critical information and, perhaps, biographic information about the author that illuminates the work in some way and enhances the reader’s thinking about that work and author.
