A Cultural Comparison. For this paper, you are asked to compare the different anthropological approaches and findings used in three sources: Elizabeth Thomas’s “The Old Way: A Story of the First People” (2006), Glynn Cochrane’s “Festival Elephants and the Myth of Global Poverty” (2008) and the play, Condor Qatay (the taped ethnographic play by Allen)
Your analytical comparison must include attention to (a) what each author’s objectives are and (b) the mode of representation that the author uses to convey her/his points (case study, comparative, fieldwork based, etc.) Beyond that minimum, you must draw on insights from this class and think creatively of a theme that links the three works as well as dissonances across the three sources. If you do not use concepts and insights from this class in your essay, you will not get a passing grade.
The paper should be 1000 words long. I will likely consider a shorter paper to be skimpy; a longer paper is likely to indicate a lack of careful editing. In the case of papers over the word limit, I will read and grade only the first 1000 words or so.
The paper is quite short. Therefore you must to take extra care to use the allotted space to make good, solid, creative points about the two cultures–no fluff!
I am happy to read a draft of your paper in advance of the due date—but you must give me sufficient lead time for doing so. If you think you will need this kind of assistance, contact me about it by email, and submit a solid draft to me NO LATER than 5pm DC time on Friday, June 15th. The more advanced your draft is, the more my comments can help you. I cannot respond to an outline.
NOTE: you will need to pre-view the play, Condor Qatay, before the assigned date in order to have time to think about its content in relation to your paper.
Other details about the paper:
1. The paper must be double-spaced, in 12 point font size, paginated, and with at least 1” margins around the text for comments.
2. Follow closely the professor’s “Writing Tips” for overall composition, effectiveness of your writing, and grammar (I will post these tips on Blackboard in advance of the paper deadline).
3. Keep a file of your drafts and final version as back-up. The professor is not responsible for lost papers.
4. Proofread the paper carefully—your computer’s spell check is not always right!
5. The only valid excuse for a late paper is a personal medical or family crisis. Any such excuse must be documented on paper and given to the professor. Problems with computers are not a valid excuse for late papers or late exams. The surest way to avoid a late paper due to a crisis is writing it well in advance of the deadline!
6. Submit your paper on Blackboard per instructions that I will send you. To be on the safe side, submit it in advance of the deadline. I will send you a confirmation of receipt by email.
7. Think about your argument, write with conviction, and, of course, provide an engaging title for your paper!
