Analyze the narrator’s actions in “The Yellow Wallpaper” using Philip Zimbardo’s application of “power” in his “Stanford Prison Experiment.”

Readings (Choose one):

Gilman, Charlotte Perkins. “The Yellow Wallpaper”.

 

Purpose:

The purpose of an analysis essay is to apply a specific critical or theoretical lens to a character, issue, or theme in a chosen reading. This involves understanding the primary reading, and also understanding topics or discussions within a critical framework (like Feminism) or the application of a particular scholar’s argument to “The Yellow Wallpaper”. For example, we might We might also apply a theory or concept from outside the discipline of English (e.g. from your own major, or area of academic or professional interest) to a work we’ve read for this class.

 

How Do I Do This?

 

  • Write a 5 page Analysis essay on “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.
  • Cite specific examples from the chosen primary reading, as well as “outside” sources that you find via your research process to support your claims.
  • Use MLA style for your essay formatting and citations
  • Be sure to read your chosen primary and secondary texts several times, and annotate them. You want to be “conversant with the texts.”
  • Challenge yourself to understand what your chosen authors are arguing, and HOW those arguments are being articulated, so that you can apply a specific theory or idea to your primary text.

 

 

Be Careful To Avoid:

  • Summarizing too much. Assume that your readers are familiar with all of the possible texts.
  • Too general of a discussion—this analysis assignment is a bit more specific in nature than your explication was.
