An Athlete Dying Young

ENG 112: Annotated Bibliography of (potentially) Final Essay Sources

For this assignment, you need to obtain three academic sources that you are considering using in your Final Essay assignment.  These sources must be found through the library resources (catalog, databases, etc), and can either provide support for your argument, or counter your analysis argument (in which case, you will counter the source in your essay), or detail the lens you are using.

The source evaluation criteria and sample Annotated Bibliography (A.B.) – the handout from our class discussion – are attached to this assignment (see below).  Print this out and refer to it to guide you in composing your A.B.  Along with a correct MLA bibliographic entry for each source, your annotation for each source must contain:
a strong (1-2 sentence) summary of the source
an evaluation of the quality of the source (3/5 evaluation criteria)
The ideal scenario is that you find and evaluate three sources that you will (or may) use for your Final Essay, but this assignment is due before the Final Essay. So, if you cannot find the sources you will use for the essay assignment, it is acceptable to find three sources relevant to the primary text you are analyzing and making an argument on, and evaluate them.

Here is the thesis statement for this:

To an Athlete Dying Young
Housman’s “To an Athlete Dying Young” poem explores how hurtful death could be to an individual particularly at a time when everything is going great. The poet explores the sudden demise of an athlete who had won a race that earned him a lot of regards in his hometown. The good things that the person has done and achieved in his life made it possible for others to remember him at all times (Housman line 10). Although death could quickly end a persons ability to achieve more success, it is his good actions and performance that help him leave a legacy that death can never shake or destroy.
The provided theme is arguable to a greater extent as it explores whether the death could truly harm a person’s legacy or not. First, from it, one could argue that death hurts the ability of a person to achieve more success as shown by Housman’s claim that “silence sounds no worse than cheers” (Housman line 15). This quote suggests that death has hindered the ability of the athlete to participate in the sport and make his fellow society members. The earth had stopped the ears is a quote that very much suggests that death had limited the ability of the athlete to engage in a game that he likes and uses it to spread his legacy. Thus, this theme could be used to argue the harm of death on an athlete and society at large.
Another argument that could be acquired from this theme is that death while hurtful it should serve as a reminder to people to create a legacy that would leave on long after they have left. The townspeople are seen to still remember the athlete even after his demise. Thus, the proposed theme is arguable and sufficient to explore Housman’s essay to a greater extent.

Final Project Instructions

For your final project, you will choose the side of the defense attorney or the prosecuting attorney. You can only choose one side. With your role in mind, read the fact pattern and then read the instructions below.
Facts:
A murder was committed in a small town and John B. Bad is the main suspect. After visiting the scene where the victim’s body was found, the police find a library card for John B. Bad nearby. The victim’s body was found in a wooded area with a lot of mud and vegetation around. The police go to John B. Bad’s house and knock on the door.  The police ask John B. Bad if he has a moment to talk about the murder that occurred.  John B. Bad invites the police in to the living room area. While in the living room, one of the detectives sees shoes on the ground that have mud on the soles. The detective takes the shoes as evidence and John B. Bad is asked to come to the station for questioning. John B. Bad agrees to come to the station and drives in his own vehicle. When he arrives at the police station, he is not handcuffed and is asked if he would talk to investigators in an interview room. John B. Bad agrees and he is led to an interview room. Again, he is not restrained in the interview room, but there are three detectives in the room and one of them is sitting in a chair blocking the door to go out of the room. John B. Bad is not read his Miranda rights, but the investigators begin to question him about his relationship with the deceased victim. John B. Bad denies having any relationship and says that he was at home alone during the time of the murder. While in the interview, a witness comes forward and says that they saw a person running away from the wooded area earlier in the day. The witness is asked if they would view a photo lineup and they agree. A detective who is not involved in the case shows the lineup to the witness. In the lineup are 6 individuals, with one of the 6 being John B. Bad. Five of the filler photos are of people who are similar in features and age, but John B. Bad’s photo shows him as quite older and having solid gray hair. The other people in the lineup are young, with not a single gray hair visible. The witness views the lineup but is hesitant to make an identification. The detective showing the lineup, who is sitting across from the witness, says to just make your best guess. After viewing the lineup a bit more, the witness circles John B. Bad’s photo and signs and dates the lineup. Shortly after, John B. Bad is arrested and charged with the murder of the victim.

Instructions for Your Paper:
1.    Pick a side. You are either acting as the defense attorney for John B. Bad or you are acting as the prosecuting attorney.
A.    DEFENSE ATTORNEY: If you are acting as the defense attorney, write at least two pages on issues in the fact pattern that you could argue in a motion to suppress to have the evidence SUPPRESSED/MADE INADMISSIBLE. Make sure you address each issue you see that you think can be suppressed. If you need more info on one issue, then talk about what information would be necessary to know in order to make your argument that the item or evidence should be suppressed. You must support your argument with case law or a statute or a constitutional amendment(s). You can use cases we learned within the course or (if familiar with WestLaw) you may find other case law. Make sure you cite any case/statute/amendment with the proper citation so I can check it!
B.    PROSECUTING ATTORNEY: If you are acting as the prosecuting attorney, write at least two pages on issues in the fact pattern that you could argue SHOULD NOT be suppressed. Make sure that you address each issue you see and argue why it should not be suppressed. If you need to add more information (or assume more information) to make your argument, then you can do so. You must support your argument with case law/statutes/constitutional amendment(s). You can use cases we learned within the course or (if familiar with WestLaw) you may find other case law. Make sure you cite any.
