The Research Process1. Choose a poem we have read so far that you like and are intrigued by.2.Use the library databases to find an article on that poem or on the poet who wrote it.It can be literary criticism (someones article about their interpretation of the poem) or biographical (details about the poets life and background). Dont use an article about a different poem, though.3. Read the article and highlight passages that you think are interesting, or that make good points. Its okay if you dont understand everything in the entire article – literary criticism can be challenging to read! Focus on the points that you do understand. If you feel like the entire article is confusing, choose a different one, though. No one wants you to feel lost and confused.4. Write a brief paragraph (three or four sentences is great) about the poem or poet. Incorporate at least one quote from the poem and one quote from the article. Remember that quotes should be integrated into your own sentences. Theres an example below. If youre not sure how to format your quote, click this link for the Purdue OWL guide.5. Include internal citations for your quotations. Poems should be cited with authors last name and a line number (line of the poem the quote comes from). Articles should be cited with authors last name and a page number. Theres an example below, but if you need more help with internal citations, click this link for Purdue OWLsguide to that.6. Include a Works Cited list for your paragraph. It should include the poem and the article. Remember that the database can usually provide the citation in MLA format for you. For more help and examples of Works Cited page, click this link for the Purdue OWL guide to Works Cited pages.In Adrienne Richs poem Aunt Jennifers Tigers, the speaker describes her aunt Jennifer as terrified (9) and mastered by (10) conflicts in her life. The speakers description gives readers as much information about her, the niece, as it does about the aunt. As one scholar argues, the speaker is making judgments about Aunt Jennifer (Rizza65). Jennifer is, after all, able to flutter (Rich 5) her hands to do needlework, though the speaker views her hands as being under the massive weight of a wedding band (Rich 7). Michael Rizzasees this description as contradictory, and attributes the symbolic weight of the ring to the nieces judgment more than actual description (65). It is not clear that Aunt Jennifer feels as weighed down as her niece perceives her to be.
