Assignment
For this first essay, I am asking you to choose an object, or a place, or a person, or an event of some significance to you and attempt to describe it to me. That is, describe what you choose in as much detail as possible as well as the reason for its significance to you. Why did you choose this, in particular, to write about? What makes it special or interesting to you?
It is entirely up to you what you choose to write about. For example, if you choose to write about a place, it can be a real place to which you currently have access (a certain room in your house, a place on the PSU campus, etc.), a place you can visit largely or only through memory or photographs (your childhood bedroom, a place you and your family once vacationed to, etc.), or a fictional place that you can “visit” in one sense or another (a place you often dream about, a place you see in a film, etc.).
In choosing your place, keep in mind that description and narration is the combined main focus of this essay, so you’ll want to choose something or some story you can describe and tell in detail. Beyond that, feel free to be as creative as you’d like!
If you choose travel writing, however, it should be your observation of the world around you rather than a recording of what you did in a chronological order. Choose an environment you are unfamiliar with, outside of your usual surroundings. This could be a club, a church, a coffee shop, a museum in a different city or another country.
Observe the scene again with your memory, then describe the place, the people, and their actions so as to convey the spirit of the place and offer some insight into the impact of the place on the people. It’s also called an ethnographic writing and this can be challenging in that you need to visualize the place/process/ culture and let the details speak for you.
The paper should be at least four pages, typed and double-spaced, and follow normal MLA formatting procedures. Your name should appear in the top left-hand corner, followed by my name, the name of our class (Writing 121), and the date. Last name and page number should appear in a running header. For more information on MLA formatting, visit the Purdue Owl MLA Formatting and Style Guide by Goggling “OWL MLA”. This is a great resource that I still refer to whenever I’m writing a paper!
