Research Paper
by lugo6190 ~ December 2nd, 2010. Filed under: Uncategorized.For this final paper, I kind of wanted to become more creative than others by not only writing a basic research paper but in addition to it writing a poem which is the basis of my paper. Before writing the paper, i will be writing the poem and once i have completed it I will analyze it through the paper. So for those who believe this is an easier task, they are very mistaken. Within this poem/paper, i will be focusing on the women of world war 1. Many individuals tend to overlook the women and focus on the pain and suffering the men of war go through but what they dont realize is that women go through the same, if not worse, pain and suffering as those men. In efforts to make this an effective paper, i will be reading various books on poetry of war, along with books on women of war.

I really like your idea of writing a poem within your paper. It definitely adds creativity to your topic. I also like your topic of focusing specifically on what women go through during war, as many times they are undermined and aren’t considered as important as men during the war. Soldiers aren’t the only one’s who are tormented by the effects during and after the war.
