The second half of the essay will be your thoughtful, critical response to that article.  You should begin by reading the short peer-reviewed journal article, “Early Modern Intertextuality” in the Drama Module of our D2L site. Take careful reading notes looking particularly for important points to mention in your summary, questions that come up for you in your initial reading (especially anything confusing or unclear), and connections that you draw between A Midsummer Night’s Dream and this article.   An effective essay will exhibit the following: A summary of the article that sounds objective and thorough.A  response to the article that is thoughtful and critical. This can include some consideration of the first part of the article, which focuses on intertextuality. HOWEVER, most of your response should focus on the section that presents a case study of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.A professional tone throughout. You don’t want to sound too conversational or like you are praising or otherwise judging the author of the text.Careful use of quotations as evidence in your response section.Consideration of both the argument (content) and text (style) of the article. Think about not just what it says but how it conveys the argument.Image transcription textEarly Modern Intertextuality: Post Structuralism, NarrativeSystems, and A Midsummer Night’s Dream Sarah Carter*Nottingham Trent University Abstract central to both … Show more… Show moreImage transcription textdoes not cancel his indebtedness to and endeavour. “This ispart and upon collective ge ments of empowerment”(Greenblatt 6: both stress the inceremony reader’s wri… Show more… Show moreImage transcription textSimilarly, Puck’s actions throughout the text figure him as aversion of Cupid, as well as his clear native folkloric referents. 1An excellent reading of this is Taylor, ‘Ovid’s myths and… Show more… Show more Arts & HumanitiesEnglish
