You are all in the Forerunner group examining Volume 3 (1912). This is an individual assignment, the groups exist to assign different volumes of the magazine to be analyszed. You are being asked to initially analyze one magazine issue from this year for the first paper, and then analyze three more issues from 1912 and integrate your analysis from the first paper. I am asking you to spread your analysis of issues throughout the year.
Think of the issues as being distributed in four parts: issues 1-3; issues 4-6; issues 7-9; and issues 10-12. You will pick ONE issue from each set. You will analyze ONE issue for the paper due Thursday, and then the addition THREE issues (one from the remaining sets) for the final paper due July 9. Here is a link to Volume 3 (1912): The entire year is one pdf document, you can use the “Jump to Section” link on the lefthand side to navigate the volume. Journal Analysis Paper 2 should include the following:
• Analyze an additional three issues of the magazine in addition to the issue you analyzed for JA Paper 1 (You should have analyzed one issue from each quarter: 1-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10-12 for the second paper.)
• You will want to examine the same things you looked at for the first issue you analyzed. Does the content change? How so? – discontinued features, new items, new people? What change over the course of a year do you see, if any?
• Are there major themes that appear in all the issues? What are they, what do they tell about America at that moment? About American women (at least white, middle-class women)?
• Journal Analysis Paper 2 should make an argument (can be a revised version of JA 1 if appropriate), be six-to-nine pages, typed, and double-spaced. Again, all sources must be properly cited (using CMS format) in footnotes and bibliography. Failure to cite sources will result in a grade of zero, no exceptions. (There will be no partial credit when evidence/sources are not cited.)
