Definition Essay

Assignment:

Write a 300-400 word definition essay which mimics the works we have read this week. Definitions can be either stipulative, where you define a word a certain way to support a larger argument or purpose, or extended, where the purpose is exploring the complexity of a thing, quality, or idea and then qualifying or limiting the range of that definition.

Important dates: *All late papers are penalized one full grade for every school day the essay is late.
