1. Joan Didion moved to California in the late 60s – the time period when the Haight was at its height, and the psychology of liberation had mass appeal. But Didion witnessed a very different version of San Francisco, and her essays on that city, and on Sacramento and Los Angeles, cast a dark shadow over the sunny countercultural celebrations we witnessed in Summer of Love. One of the main goals of the counterculture was honest self-expression based on the sincere attempt to know oneself (either through the use of psychoanalysis, drugs, music or intimate connectedness to others), and another of its goals was the freedom to live a peaceful, non-materialistic and "authentic" life, but Didion characterizes such goals as unattainable, given the cast of characters, and shows how those very goals lead to tragedies with both personal and social consequences. Use Didion’s essays in Slouching Toward Bethlehem.
Mechanical and formatting issues:
1600-1800 words
Times Roman typeface, 12 pt. type (no 16 pt. periods, thanks)
Single-spaced block paragraphs with single (not double or triple) white space between paragraphs (if you want to know what this looks like, see the sample page below)
Standard margins
Parenthetical MLA citations (again, if you want to see what this looks, see the sample page below)
Print on one side of paper only and staple or paper clip pages
No semi-colons (your word processing software deposits them randomly at the first sign of a sentence fragment, so they are invariably incorrect)
Do not start a sentence with Also
Proofread (don’t merely have the computer spell check)
The paper must have an original title that is creative and engaging
