Literary Criticism

This semester you have read many literary texts and you have discovered different methods of interpreting them. Now, choose one critical approach that you find interesting and use it to help you analyze one of the following texts: Ibsen’s “A Doll House”, Shakespeare’s “Hamlet”, Eliot’s “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock”, Sophocles “Antigone”, Kafka’s “A Hunger Artist”. You can find these plays, poems and stories in the text. If there is another text you’d rather work with, just let me know. Your final draft must be 3-5 pages in length, include 3-5 secondary sources, and be formatted in MLA Style. Please use the following links to do more research on different Critical Approaches.
