For the final paper I
think it would be interesting in possibly writing our own short piece of melodrama.
In doing so we could explain with research what made the work a melodrama and
what emotions we were trying to convey and, what emotions we wanted to pull out
from the audience. After writing the short piece one could potentially talk
about the morality, the style, symbolism and the narrative of our piece and why
these things are important within the work. The research could be used to back
up why we chose to write the piece in a certain way and why certain decision were
made during the writing process. It could also be used to support certain
claims, for example, why a sense of morality is important within a melodrama. Primarily
using the research to backup and support claims can be the focus of the
research aspect of the paper.
