How much should I read for my essay?

Summary: You must read and re-read the primary text, but it's up to you if you want to read secondary sources. These can be very helpful, but not strictly necessary. Many students are uneasy about the amount of material they need to read for their particular essay. It is, of course, important to know the primary text in detail, so you must read it, and then you must read it again, and perhaps you might read it once more after that. As to secondary sources - that's a more difficult matter to decide. The course booklet recommends a limited amount of reading in addition to the primary text. This further reading is not intended to supplant the primary text or to supply the whole answer to the essay question, but rather to help the student understand what the imortant critical issues are. The booklet states that it is possible to tackle the essay questions successfully without having recourse to secondary sources. Some students can write very good essays without consulting any secondary sources at all. That probably won't happen absolutely for your essays on Jane Eyre, because if you think about it, your edition of Jane Eyre gives you an introduction - you might read part of it, if not the whole of it - and there are annotations in your edition of Jane Eyre and these notes sometimes present a point of view. Some editions of Jane Eyre actually include critical articles in the back. If you are reading introductions, notes, critical articles, you are probably being influenced by them and therefore you ought to indicate that. One way of indicating that you are acknowledging your sources is through your bibliography. In the bibliography, you list all the works that you have read in relation to your primary text. This might include the introduction and editorial notes to your edition of the text. If you do use secondary sources, the best way to use them is in what I would call the "yes, but" manner. That is, you don't take a critic, "Critic A", and say, "Critic A has said the final word on this topic so I will just tell you what Critic A says and I agree absolutely and wholeheartedly with Critic A". That's that not very rewarding for you or for the reader; in fact, it allows you to escape the challenge of being confronted by the primary text yourself. So, a better manner is to say, "Critic B has made this assertion about Jane Eyre. There is something to be said for this, but it fails to recognise, or is deficient in this respect or respects...". This shows that you have read the primary text and it shows that you've read a secondary text about the primary text with intelligence and discrimination. It shows that you recognise the strengths of the argument put forward by the secondary source, and that you've got a mind of your own. After a while it will become second nature to you and you will do it in all of your courses. In challenging somebody else's argument, you're entering into the world of scholarship; you're entering into the world of debate and the clash of ideas. The expectation is that through the clash of ideas, through discussion, a greater insight into whatever it is that we're discussing will emerge. So, use secondary sources as a starting point or as a stimulation for developing your own point of view and if you do that and if - very importantly - you acknowledge all the sources that you've used, you won't be in any danger of being accused of plagiarism. Plagiarism is where you take somebody else's ideas and pass them off as if they were your own. That is, you copy them out more or less verbatim, but you don't signal through footnotes or through the bibliography that you've actually used somebody else's ideas. This is to be avoided at all costs and severe penalties apply. Tags:hr se women_and_men gen skynet urban
