20: Introductions and Literature Reviews
and Questions
1.
My strengths of writing for my
introduction are: my research question and introducing my source Janice Radway’s
Reading
the Romance. I need to work on how to make my introduction simple and
smooth, so the audience can understand the research paper. My strength of
writing for the review of literature is: my sources. I need to work on
identifying and defining special language.
2.
The research problem identified in my introduction
is: what are the features of modern day romances, and are the features
different from the ones of Radway’s time? I wrote that my research project will
show what types of romances are liked and not liked by different people. That
is how my project contributes to the writing studies.
3.
The other researcher that found answers
to my research question is Janice Radway the author of the book, Reading
the Romance, and what she found was concrete and interesting. In her
book people liked mystery and romance, or adventure and romance. The research
that Radway found that is related to my research was the types of themes and
plots are wanted in a romance novel.
4.
How I connect my findings in question
three to my project is the plots and the type of romances that people liked or
did not like are connected to my project. In other words, Radway looked up many
questions that had to do with romance, and the people that answered her
questions helped her research along, just like her book helps my research along
as well.
5.
My plan for finishing my introduction
and literature review is to complete both with details about the research essay
and details about my resource Reading the Romance by Janice
Radway.
6.
The feedback that I want from Professor
Chandler is: any feedback that will improve my research essay. I want feedback
on everything- the introduction, the body of the essay, the conclusion, and on the
work cited.
