Essay #3 The Devil in the White City (7-10 pages)
All referenced material must be cited using proper MLA format (including the material you reference from The Devil in the White City). Remember: you are not proving you read the novel by summarizing it; rather, you are using elements throughout the novel to support an argument about its content.
Regardless of the option you choose, your argument must also cite directly one previous course text (from Signs of Life) and two scholarly sources, making sure to adequately introduce these texts and to explain fully how ideas from these sources contribute to your discussion of genre in Everett’s work. Your discussion must also pull examples through the novel—meaning: don’t just select examples from the beginning of the book.
**Whichever option you choose, your first body paragraph should summarize the book in one paragraph. This paragraph should be about ½-¾ of a page (at most).
**The topic you select will dictate the type of academic/scholarly sources you incorporate.
1) What is at stake for Chicago?
In your essay, you will integrate ideas related to:
• The Fair organizer’s rivalry with New York City
o The Fair Organizer’s concern of measuring up to the Paris World’s Exhibition
o Ideas about the image Chicago had at the time of the planning of the fair and perhaps mention the image created by the Fair’s completion.
2) How is Holmes able to pull off his crimes/various schemes?
In your essay, you need to discuss:
o The archetype Holmes cultivates—complete with the characteristics
o A mention of the various scheme/crimes he executes (not just murder, which is one)
o Use evidence to show how people respond to him (his archetype)
? The people who liked/trusted him as well as those who disliked/distrusted him
o What informed his archetype construction (what inspired him)?
3) Aside from the fact that these two storylines happened simultaneously, why discuss them together? What do they prove together about the power of archetypes?
In your essay, you need to discuss:
• The main message and archetype in each story line
• What they have in common
• The ways in which they differ
• What their binary relationship says about society (or at least that era)
