All parts of the outline should be constructed and organized to support your thesis or central point. Therefore, before you begin the outline you have to have a sense of what you will argue in the paper: you have to be clear about your thesis statement. \nMain Categories. Arrange your general ideas in main categories. These are the main topics of your essay. Arrange your main categories in the order you discuss them.\nTo help you arrange your categories: look at your main categories, with your thesis in mind, try to find a way that the labels might be arranged in a sentence or two that supports your argument. \nSub-categories (Paragraphs). Within each general category list and arrange the paragraphs that support the category. \nSentences. Within each sub-category list and arrange your specific notes to support the argument made on that paragraph. This is the order of sentences in the paragraph. \nThe arrangement of caregories, sub-categories and sentences should present a clear, logical argument to support your thesis. Read here about Methods of proving a topic sentence. \nAlso, the different sections should relate logically to each other. Read here about Logic in Argumentative Writing. \nOrganize the outline according to your purposes: Are you attempting to show the chronology of some historical development, the cause-and-effect relationship between one phenomenon and another, the process by which something is accomplished, or the logic of some position? Are you defining or analyzing something? Comparing or contrasting one thing to another? Presenting an argument (one side or both)? \nSome methods of organizing:\nClimactic arrangement: one that works up to your strongest point, which is delivered as a kind of grand finale.\nThe inductive argument: in which you build up the evidence first, and then draw conclusions. \nA problem-solution format: involves presenting the problem first and then outlining the solution.\nMore Principles of Organization. \n\n\n\nTips \nA sample of a topic outline. \nAn outline can be written as a topic outline, in which you use only short phrases to suggest ideas, or as a sentence outline, in which you use full sentences (even very brief paragraphs) to show the development of ideas more fully.

Here's an idea.....Read the book!.  If you don't have time to read the whole thing, try Cliff's notes.  You can also search online for reviews of the book.  Even if you don't have time to read the book for the report, don't rob yourself of a good literary experience--it is never a bad idea to learn more.  DON'T CHEAT!!!!!

"Because life immitates art, we often find that our lives are reflected in literary works from historical points of view.  One can never mistakenly see himself in a character in a great novel such as King Lear or the Great Gatsby.  If you are the same as one of these characters, you will have no doubt as I had with the character ________________ in the novel ____________. "\n\nthen continue with your essay from there\n\nsusan

You would need to summarize the points that you made regarding their art, history, religion and culture.\n\nYou did make some comparisons to other cultures of the same time period, and current cultures, right?  Or what influence these all had on their people and society?\n\nThus your conclusion should flow from these comparisons and/or influence summaries.\n\nGood luck!

Topic? Like a summary?\n\nHamlets father is killed by his uncle. His uncle becomes his stepdaddy. Hamlet wants revenge and to be the next king.\n\nHamlet is known for a lot of soliloquies. (My whole AP Lit Class could chose had to memorize their own) \n\nFor a research paper, choose one of the soliloquies and write about that, you should rewrite it in normal "speech" and research about the allusions used. There paper practically done.

It makes it easier if you outline it.  Intro, a paragraph for each point you want to make, and a conclusion.  I would look at how the autobiographies are important to history or a more modern look at the stars autobio's importance.  Define your topic more and find resources to site it makes the paper go easier
