memoranda must include ALL of the following components:

1)    Explain the 3-4 main themes in your own words.  Please do not simply copy the words from the sources. I want to see that you actually understand these main points and can express it in your own voice.

2)    What is the author’s reason for writing about this theme?  What is he/she trying to perform with it? In other words, what is the theme’s relevance and why is it important for readers to understand the author’s claims?

3)    Please note that I may subject students’ paper to plagiarism check through a suitable software. If plagiarism is detected, the grade granted will be 1 (one).
