The letter "V" is used by the character V.  It represents his room number in the camps.  He uses Beethoven's 5th when he blows up Parliament, the V sign is basically an upside down Anarchy symbol.  I have not seen the movie, but I have read the comic several times.  Hopefully some of this is useful.

is it a writing class or an english class?\n\nif its english you probably want to stick with literature- compare two characters in the same book or two different books\n\nif its a writing class and the sky is the limit, then Id look at your interests- if you like animals, you could have a thesis around how having pets are beneficial to your health, if you are interested in history, you could have a thesis like "X event changed the world for the better/worse"\n\nPlay to your interests- if youre not interested in writing your paper, chances are your teacher wont be interested in reading it- it really makes a difference

I often include tone. The tone of an author can be a dead give away of his stance on the subject he/she is writing about - love, death, polotics, etc. - without it being blatent. Searching for the meaning of the author's tone has always, in my case, proven to be a good topic as it shows that you did a very detailed reading of the work and are able to comprehend more than just the words that the authors are putting to paper, but also their underlying meaning. \n\nGood luck on your paper!

Her opening sentence/paragraph should be about what her paper is about. Email me and I can help--I'm an English teacher.

G'day Kim,\n\nThank you for your question.\n\nIf it were me, I would compare and contrast the satirical approach to human nature of Voltaire's Candide and Swift's works Gullivers Travels and a Modest Proposal. (Please note that a Modest Proposal is by Swift not Milton).\n\nHaving said that, you are leaving it a bit late but hopefully you will be able to pull something together.\n\nI have attached sources for your reference.\n\nRegards

Be careful with the vague pronoun "it," and avoid it whenever you can, unless the antecedent for it is very evident.  Your sentence which begins "In this essay, it will concentrate on the discourse structure..." should simply use "essay..." as the subject and begin "This essay will concentrate on...."   The phrase "in addition includes the interpretation of a selected text (news) from a newspaper" is confusing and should be a clause.  A better construction for that additional information would be to make it an independent clause.  For example: "Additionally, this essay [and here you need to state why] includes an interpretation of a selected text."  (At that point in the essay, it is not really important whence the selected text comes---save that for when you get to it.)  Also, straight-forward wording is often much better, having a much smoother flow, than the use of pretentiously polysyllablic terminology.  Overall, what you have sounds good.

All three disciplines could require one to format an essay based on a person or ideology.  Also, each of the three would require superior prose.  With philosophy, it would be pertinent to primarily focus on an ideal or the person responsible for the ideal.  In historical essays, the thesis may have a philosophical tone, but the writer proves his point much like a scientist with specific examples.  (In simple terms, Hitler was evil.  He was responsible for the extermination of millions of Jews.  He was responsible for the bombing of London.  He was responsible for the submission of France.  Each of those would have published sources to back them up.) English is very broad and vague, because it can encompass so many other disciplines.  For the most part, it could be written succecsfully like a history paper.\n\nA topic across the three disciplines could be something like the following:  \n"World War II"\n1.  History - American Naval warfare during World War II\n2.  Philsophy - Ideals of a killer:  Hitler's final solution\n3.  English - World War II feminist movement:  With their men off to war, many women took on the roles not traditionally tailored to them.  Because of this, gender equality became an issue.\n\nI hope this clears it up for you.  Good luck.

Here's a resource. Go check it out. For more, just type "T.S. Eliot 'the Wasteland', mythology" into your search engine and look it up, the old-fashioned way!\n\nDon't forget Five-paragraph construction, especially on a 12-page paper!

Okay, the essay must be well-developed, which means you fully explain your ideas and reasoning.  Multi-paragraph, obviously, means more than one paragraph.  \n\nThe essay should be about Poe's poetry.  Specifically, you need to explain what was 'musical' about his poetry (how it flowed together like a song), how his poetry described beauty, and how it was logically composed (how it was layed out so it made sense.)\n\nI would suggest at least one paragraph for each of the three things you need to talk about, plus one paragraph for an introduction and one for a conclusion (ie, his poetry sucked, it was good, whatever).

What your teacher wants you to do is, rather than just put the wuote in your paper, explore why and how this quote serves to further your argument.  For example, if I was writing a paper about teh play MacBeth and wanted to talk about Lady MacBeth's madness, it wouldn't be enough for me to put in  the paper "Lady MacBeth repeats 'out damned spot!' which shows her increasing madness."  I would have to go on from there and say something like, "The repetition of 'out damned spot,' reveals how Lady MacBeth is fixated by the blood stains she sees on her hands but are no longer there.  Her internalization of the murder is so torturous for her that she feels like she can never wash away the stains.  This is how this scene proves Lady MaBeth's madness; since she cannot see that her hands are clean, she is unable to put the murder behind her and therefore cannot remove her terrible misdeads from her psyche."\n\nWhen you are putting quotations in a paper, just be sure to guide your reader through what the quotation means to your argument.  Never assume that your reader will just "get" your meaning; be sure you explain everything.

Thesis statement is basically your main idea. I.E., "The mafia originated...."\n\nOr, you may wish to state your opinion on the mafia, and then support it with your historical information. Example: "The mafia, a nefarious group known for organized crime, originated...."

Come up with a general thesis, like "Evil exists because of humans" or something like that. Then find your sources. Write a long paragraph based on the information from each source that pertains to that thesis. Then, put the paragraphs from each source in some sort of order, based on how they flow the best. Then, in between each paragraph, fill in with more paragraphs that combine ideas with one another, so that they flow. If you used, say, 6 sources, you should have about 6 pages by now. Then, read through and fill in points and embellish the ideas that are already there. Voila... 12 pages. Make sure you take snack and rest breaks every 2 hours or so. Good luck!
