Question

Instructions:Select all the correct answers.

Which of the following topics would be suitable for a short research paper?
an in-depth study of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
a comparison of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey
an analysis of Edgar Allan Poe's narrative style in "The Black Cat"
an analysis of protagonists in Jane Austen's works
a discussion about the use of symbolism in the novel Moby-ick

Answer 1

I'd say just Mary Shelly's Frankenstein, as the others seem to be self-contained, demanding no research. Meanwhile, researching Mary's life and her era all give ample background as to the influence and history leading to the novel inventing the genre of science fiction.

Answer 2

to the first person who commented-

mary shelley is not the answer, because it says "pick the ones you can write a SHORT research paper on" when the first one says in depth study of marry shelley's book, frankinstein, meaning it would be alot longer then what its asking for.

the correct answer would be c & d because they are both analysis, meaning its basically making a summary about the topic, and those are not long.
