In your work on this assignment, you should follow the same document analysis guidelines that are uploaded to the Moodle in a separate file. Your essay should be appropriately footnoted and should cite at least four relevant secondary sources of scholarly nature (books, book chapters, journal articles, but not websites!)
Some stylistic rules to follow:
Avoid excesses of language and judgment as well as meaningless comments (e.g. ‘this is a most interesting document’). Be more creative in expressing what makes the document unique or intriguing. Do not use personal pronouns and adjectives (‘I’,‘me’, ‘we’, ‘my’). Type your document analysis essay double-spaced, using 12-point font. Word length: 1200.
