Sue Monk Kidd includes a short epigraph at the beginning of each chapter. She has pulled these quotes from various books about bees and beekeeping. An epigraph is a quote at the beginning of a chapter of a novel that indirectly shows a theme. There is an epigraph per chapter of the book that uses the main symbol, bees, to relate to Lilys life. Your Task: Choose one epigraph from the novel and write a one paragraph response explaining how it connects to the contents of the correlating chapter. Identify one possible theme that is portrayed in both the epigraph and within the chapter. Your paragraph must include the following: A strong topic sentence that clearly states the intention of your response. Here is where you will state the theme of the epigraph/chapter that you will focus on. Explain the meaning of the epigraph, and then explain how it connects to the chapter. Supporting details that develop your topic sentence. You need to include two quotes. A concluding sentence that ties together the main points developed within your paragraph. Remember, your concluding sentence should sound definitive and not include any new information that was not presented in your paragraph. Be sure to: Proofread your work for spelling and grammatical errors. Cite correctly! o I.e.: (Monk Kidd 54). o Please note: If you state the authors name when introducing the quote, you only need to include the page number in your citation. Tips for blending/ incorporating quotations within your writing: 1. Introduce the quotation with a complete sentence and a colon before your quote. Introduce the quotation as a complete sentence and add a colon before your quote: quote goes here (Monk Kidd 54). 2. Use an introductory or explanatory phrase, but not a complete sentence, separated from the quotation with a comma. Introductory or explanatory phrase goes here with a comma before the quote, quote from the text here (Monk Kidd 54). 3. Make the quotation a part of your own sentence without any punctuation between your own words and the words you are quoting. In other words, use very short quotations-only a few words--as part of your own sentence. Start your own original sentence and include the quote here without any punctuation between your own words and the quoted words (Monk Kidd 54). 4. Begin your sentence by paraphrasing/summarizing the quote, and then finish the sentence with the quote. Paraphrase or summarize the quote you would like to use then insert the original word for word quote here (Monk Kidd 54).
Other rules for incorporating quotes:
You can change a word in a quote to make it grammatically consistent with your introduction if you place [ ] around the new word. A quote must be less than four lines long. You may include an ellipsis () if necessary to omit portions of a long quote if you cannot break the quote up into two different sentences or thoughts. The quote must support your thesis or topic sentence. Otherwise it is irrelevant or unrelated. When you quote a quote, you must first introduce your quote with a normal quotation mark. When you introduce the quote or dialogue, you open and close it with just one quotation mark. Be sure to close both sets of quotation marks before you cite it, like this: o Introductory or explanatory phrase goes here, open with a double quotation mark and insert quote from text open and close dialogue with single quotes (Monk Kidd 54). o Introductory or explanatory phrase goes here open with a double quotation mark and insert quote from text open and close dialogue with single quotes and if you continue to quote, the rest goes here before you close the double quotation mark (Monk Kidd 54).
