I need help writing a lit criticism paper...do u know any legit websites?
if your interested, i may be able to help you understand different branches of literary criticism even though i haven't read these. right off the top of my head, i know there is social criticism (what do the works say about social problems, i.e., do they address poverty, types of government.) i know in rebecca, she goes from a rather meager social class to being mistress of a mansion. there's historic criticism. also gender criticism. i subcatagory of gender criticism would be feminist criticism. how would a modern woman today look at the works? i know in rebecca, the protagonist isn't even named. what does this say about her as a women? her role? she is very docile; you can use this. in rebecca, there seem to be two types of women presented: the good woman, who is chaste, submissive, bearing the unpleasant burden, and rebecca, who was wicked, independent, promiscuous. just one way you could go with that. (i've seen the hitchcock movie). if you like, i can look it up. i'm pretty sure i have a book that lists more forms of criticism. oh, there's psychologic criticism too. feel free to email me.
Reply:Try sparknotes.com and search for the titles. They may have some insights that can get you started. Otherwise, Google the title. "literary criticism" is not really so bad as the name sounds, and really any analysis of the books falls under these categories.
Reply:do you mean that you lit it on fire and then write on it?how can you do that?
