What is an Annotated Bibliography
An annotated bibliography is a collection of articles, journals, books, etc. based on a topic. You list the MLA citations (in alphabetical order) and after each one, write one or two paragraphs about the article. In your annotation, briefly summarize the article (the main points), assess the article (is it a reliable source?), and most importantly, reflect on the article (how useful would it be for your research.

Assignment Description
*This assignment topic is related to your Poetry Project Presentation. Your research must be based on your poet and related time period.
For this assignment, you must find 5 secondary sources (articles from the HCC Online Library) and write an annotation for each. The 5 sources must be based on at least two different literary critical approaches, such as Biographical, Historical, Sociological, Psychological, etc. (see the PowerPoint Presentation titled “ENC 1102 Types of Literary Criticism Download ENC 1102 Types of Literary Criticism” for details and options). The articles should be based on topics about your poets and the time period, not examples of their work (like poems).
