Oral Presentation Assignment
Most articles are easy to find: paste the material in quotation marks into the library catalog. If that fails, paste the material in italics instead and navigate to the correct chapter or issue.
A few of the articles are harder to find for various reasons, so here are some shortcuts for you:
Lorelei Caraman. “The Urge to Tell vs. the Need to Conceal: Confession as Narrative Desire in Poe’s ‘The Black Cat,’ ‘The Tell-Tale Heart’ and ‘The Imp of the Perverse’.” American and British Studies Annual, vol. 7, 2014.
Thomas, Adam. “ ‘I Killed Him for the Money’: The American Dream in Billy Wilder’s Double Indemnity.” Opticon1826, vol. 6, 2009, pp. 1-11.
