Prompt
In this paper, you will address the following question from “Questions for Writing about an Author in Depth” on pp. 858-59 of your book:
- “What topics reappear in the writer’s work? What seem to be the major concerns of the author?” To address this question, you should read all of the poems by Langston Hughes in our book. You should choose just one major claim to make about these topics, and all of your paragraphs should relate to this claim. (Use the broad question about images in the sample student work on “To His Coy Mistress” as a model for narrowing down a broad topic into a specific claim.)
