    Master’s dissertation methodology (Literature)

    Dr Wassila MOURO

    Abstract
    It is a ONE BLOCK paragraph

    We say: this work deals with………….

    We have to be direct to the point and by the end we provide chapter divisions

    General Introduction (7 steps to be followed) start from general to specific


    1) Topic: Literature in general; period; movement….
    2) Theme: Writer / theme and the selected work to be analysed
    3) Observation: all what you have noticed about the selected work/period. These
    observations trigger the following questions
    4) Research questions: One main Question (it is general and envelopes the whole
    work, then sub- questions that will have their answers in each chapter.
    5) Hypotheses (Propositions): these are you possible answers to the questions you
    have asked (may be, could be, it seems…., perhaps…)
    6) Methodology: a/ techniques used, concepts and theories
    b/ Chapters’ division

    The step that is not discussed here is MOTIVATION, because it tends to be rather too
    subjective we will not use it. It’s place is after the 2nd step, where the researcher is
    supposed to state the reasons for his/her choice of the topic and theme.

    General Conclusion Start from general to specific


    You provide answers to your questions of each chapter

    It is the conclusion of conclusions

    You state your findings (if there are any)

    In the last paragraph you try to make the link with the title.
