3202 (Detectives and Spies) Short Essay Topics
This essay is due at the beginning of class on May 30. It should be 3-4 pages long (double-spaced). Concentrate on creating a real argument, not just listing observations about the works (I should be able to disagree with your paper, while still thinking its good work).
Choose ONE of the following two topics.

DEATH. How important is it that someone dies in a detective story? In a spy story? Is murder dealt with similarly in both genres, or does its treatment differ? Choose two works and analyze the role/significance of death in each.

THE TEXT THAT YOU WILL BE CONCENTRATING ON : “
THE THIRTY NINE-STEPS” AND “MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE”
A reminder: the opening paragraph of your essay must end with a question. That question should then be answered in the final paragraph. An example of an appropriate question might be “Why is murder a more common topic of detective stories than, say, theft or assault?” or “Why non-European characters are more uncommon in spy stories than non-British European characters?”
