This was the first literary analysis paper that I had worked on in sometime and so I found it helpful to work on the thesis and use that as a map for my whole paper. What was new for me with this assignment was using the general literary resources. Doing research through this means helped me to find out a lot of broad information about the poem under different topics surrounding it. I found that doing this research added more ways and directions in which I could analyze Ozymandias. It also just helped me appreciate what I was analyzing and the author more—as I did the research I become more intellectually curious about Shelley and his contemporaries and how their writings influenced each other.
