- The goal of this paper is to examine and critically engage with the text "A Genuine Narrative of the Deplorable Deaths of the English Gentlemen and others who were suffocated in the Black Hole". The focus should be on how the text itself works and how it represents European views on India/Indians.
- Is there a system in place that organizes European representations of Indian peoples and places, and that informs European self representation in relation to those peoples and places? How might "colonial discourse" be working?
- The essay should be clear, well-organized, well-signposted, and well-written. It may, but need not, draw on secondary sources in order to make its case - if so, note those sources using MLA citation. The essay should advance a clear thesis, and it should develop an argument.
