Hello, I have a paper that I need help writing for my EN-318 Gothic Literature course. The directions are as follows:

An analysis of Bram Stoker's Dracula

The analysis must be one of the following Gothic themes in the attached document

The format of the essay is as follows:

Introduction

Describe the theme, element of fiction, or critical approach that you're focusing on-not by announcing it (Ex: "In this paper I will..."), but by making a statement about how your focus relates to what you believe is the purpose of the writer.

Body

Provide specific examples of your focus from the reading, referring to specific page numbers of descriptions and using transitional words and phrases (similarly, moreover, however, nevertheless, as a result, etc.) to show connections between ideas, directly quoting when you believe the language is especially descriptive and should not be paraphrased and paraphrasing or summarizing when you wish to convey the plot without necessarily focusing on the language used in the description. Include page numbers for both quotes and paraphrases.

Conclusion

Explain the significance of your focus and how analyzing the writer's techniques in relation to your chosen focus enhances your understanding and appreciation of the reading. You could also describe how elements of the reading applied not only when it was written but also today, or apply not only to fiction but also to real life. If you do so, this shouldn't be brought up for the first time in your conclusion but should be an extension of a point you've already made in your essay.
