Extended Essay ideas for Literature?


Recommended Posts

So I want to do an Extended Essay in English Literature on Lolita by Vladmir Nabokov.

Any ideas about what parts of the book i should do it on?

Should i do it as a standalone book or should i do  comparitive with another? If so, what other book should i use?

Comparative essays are always easier, at least that's what I've been lead to believe. It's sort of a recipe for success for EEs in english. I can't tell you what to pair it with though. Also, you might not want to tie yourself down with Lolita. My advice is to look at the books you've read and make connections between them, or look at summaries of books you might read and make connections. My thesis for my EE arose out of a lot of thought and research into many different avenues with different book pairings. Once you think you've got a good thesis, you can read/reread the books and let the parts you want to use form around it.
