Write a carefully edited and proofread paper of approximately 800-1,000 words (two-and-a-half
to three double-spaced pages) responding to the following prompt. Your paper should be
properly formatted according to MLA style, and pay careful attention to technical issues such as
proper in-text citations and a correctly formatted Works Cited page (I should NOT see problems
marked on prior papers repeated in this one). Submit paper in hard-copy only on Dec. 15.
Choosing a work by either Aeschylus (The Oresteia), Sophocles (Oedipus Rex), or Euripides
(Medea), analyze how the poet, within the context of a theatrical work, grapples with
philosophical, political, and/or social issues of critical importance to the audience of his play(s),
or to Greek civilization more foundationally.
Be sure to illustrate your points with appropriate descriptions and properly cited quotations
from the text you focus on, and to cite at least two appropriate scholarly sources to augment
your analysis (again, these sources should be clearly relevant to your discussion, and not merely
thrown in to complete a requirement of the assignment).
Technical notes:
Remember: whichever theme(s) you choose to discuss, you should back up your points by
quoting and correctly citing relevant passages from the play(s).
Quotes longer than four lines of your paper should be offset and indented appropriately (five
spaces or one tab), and not employ quotation marks (unless someone is being quoted within
the text), only a correct citation at the end of the quote (longer quotes should appear in your
paper, in other words, much as they do in the text you are quoting from, though spacing should
remain consistent with the double-spacing of your paper).
Quotes shorter than four lines of your paper should use slashes to indicate line breaks. All
quotes should reference the translator of the play from which they are taken, followed by the
page number of the text, followed by the line numbers designating the quoteàpositions within
that play. For example: ven if I must suffer the work and the agony / and all the race of
man// I embrace you9ou, / my victory, are my guilt, my curse, and still (Fagles
223.1011-1013).
