Nobel Prize winner J.M. Coetzee's Disgrace is a novel about oppression and violence set in South Africa. Colonialism, race, women's rights, sexual assault, academe, and even art are all part of the mix. We suggest useful sources for your research from a literary or social sciences point of view.
We also include material on MLA citation style, avoiding plagiarism, and the writing/research process to help you get used to academic writing for your advanced classes in other subjects.
Best regards,
Roberta Tipton
