How will you research your topic (i.e., what types of sources will you need to use to answer the questions you are asking)?
While you do not need to have a sense of your paper's thesis at this time, at the end of your proposal, please offer one or two key questions about your topic that will guide your early research and ultimately end up informing your thesis statement.

Entries should be formatted according to the rules of the Chicago Manual of Style (guidelines can be found in files)
This bibliography should be annotated, that is, you should write a couple of lines below each entry stating why this source shall be useful for your research and in writing your paper.

at least six (6) sources (please limit your use of Internet sources)
