Hi all - your essay is due on October 5th.
It must be printed out in MLA format (Times New Roman, 12, 1.5 line space, 1 inch margins, etc.) as well as emailed to me before class. If you are late with either of these then you will get a zero.
It makes sense to do everything by Friday 3rd in order to ensure that there are no slip ups.
Your essay titles:
1. The role of the Personal Legend in The Alchemist.
2. The role of perseverance in The Alchemist.
3. The role of the Soul of the World in The Alchemist.
4. The role of faith/positive thinking in The Alchemist.
5. The role of the need to confront the four obstacles in life and overcome them in The Alchemist.
Your essay must be 5 paragraphs long, and have supporting evidence for all arguments.
