Historical fiction is defined as movies and novels in which a story is made up but is set in the past and borrows true characteristics of the time period in which it is set[1]. In other words, it is fiction (make believe) that is set, uses, compares, or takes place in history.
Some well-known examples of historical fiction include: Gone With the Wind, To Kill a Mockingbird, The Three Musketeers, and The Hunchback of Notre Dame. By the assignment due-date you will write your own short piece of historical fiction (fully cited in MLA, APA, or Chicago style).
The minimum requirements for the essay include: 6+ pages minimum, full citation of sources in the paper (a Works Cited is not good enough), proof-read and largely free of grammatical errors. You will be graded on the quality and originality of the work. While many students may wish to just write a paper, this assignment may also be completed as a presentation. If you choose to do a presentation you may pick the medium (e.g. video, animation, etc.). Please discuss your presentation with me before you begin so I can make sure we are on the same page, so to speak. The Historical Fiction is worth 100 points.
