APees: Works Cited Page

Your Jane Eyre paper needs to use two outside sources that either directly or indirectly influence your thought process on the paper's topic. You have three topic choices--a character/genre analysis, a close reading of a motif, symbol, or theme, or an analysis of the Fay Weldon statement regarding moral reconciliation/spiritual assessment. Your outside sources need to complement your commentary or somehow affect your reading of the novel; the novel does not count as one of the two sources but may certainly be listed as a third.

To create a standard Works Cited page, follow these steps. You may use www.easybib.com to help you format the individual entries, but remember to proofread carefully, especially for punctuation.

1. Start the Works Cited page on a new piece of paper, unnumbered.

2. Center "Works Cited" on the top line--do not underline, italicize, or otherwise embellish the two words. Do not enclose them in quotation marks, either--I did here to distinguish the words from the rest of the sentence.

3. Flush with the left margin, start your first entry, alphabetized by keyword. Double-space all entries, and indent the second or third line of each entry one tab (or five spaces pica, if typing.)
4. Do not number entries, and only double-space between entries.
