This is out first collaborated English project. I teamed up with David Todd with the topic about Mark Twin. We are interested in researching about him because he was more modernized, so it will be easier to understand his work. I think that it will be more interesting if we are able to come up with one thesis about him, not just writing about his entire life. However, we have not seriously talked about the direction we will take. Today, we worked together to set up the schedule for the whole project. I think we are capable of coming up with good paper.
Hemingway said that all American literature springs from one book by Mark Twain called 'Huckleberry Finn.' Twain's official autobiography has just come out, but you don't have time to read it (about 700 pages and online references). I suggest that you take some small part of what he attempted -- anti imperialist writing, his thoughts on racism, his thoughts about religion -- something like that. See if you can find that kind of material. If you cannot, then let's see if we can find something better. Ask me or Ms. Walton if you have trouble finding sources.
