Directions Choose ONE of the two prompts to respond to for the essay test. You will have 120 minutes to complete the test. Resources are limited to your physical book.   Prompt 1  This prompt asks you to do a close reading (formalist) of the novel. How does Silvia Moreno-Garcia use Gothic conventions in Mexican Gothic to set up the story? Create an argument that offers evidence from the story and discusses the effect of those choices?  Your essay must do all of the following:  Make a clear argument about how Moreno-Garcia uses Gothic conventions — not just that she uses them, but what work they do in the novel. What do they create, reveal, or make possible?  Identify at least one gothic convention at work in the text.  Consider: the haunted house, mysterious or menacing families, entrapment, madness, atmosphere, or unreliable perception. Choose the ones most relevant to your argument.  Use specific textual evidence.  Quote or reference key scenes, imagery, dialogue, or descriptions. Explain how your evidence supports your argument.  Analyze how Moreno-Garcia transforms or departs from Gothic tradition. What does she do differently, and why does it matter? Prompt 2 This prompt asks you to do a “theoretical approach” of the story. This is a more complex task and is evaluated for its greater critical complexity. What does Mexican Gothic reveal or critique about power through its use of Gothic conventions? Choose ONE theoretical approach in your analysis of the story: feminist or postcolonial.  Your essay must do all of the following:  State your chosen lens clearly in your thesis and make a specific argument — not just “the novel critiques colonialism,” but what it reveals about how that power operates.  Apply your chosen lens explicitly using concepts from class:  Feminist lens: women’s agency, confinement and resistance, whose fear matters, the body as a site of control.  Postcolonial lens: the “Other,” colonialism, eugenics, land and body as contested territory, whose story gets told.  Use specific textual evidence.  Quote or reference key scenes, imagery, dialogue, or descriptions. Explain how your evidence supports your argument.  Connect your lens to the Gothic form.  How does Moreno-Garcia use Gothic conventions — entrapment, madness, the haunted house, the monstrous — to make her critique visible? Your lens and your close reading should work together.
