My research essay is based on “Salvation” by Langston Hughes. My thesis statement is: “ When the big day comes, the author goes through a transformative experience in which both: his faith in Jesus and his morals are being challenged.” This ceremony was a very significant experience that marked the author’s coming of age moment. So for the secondary source information I plan on using to support my essay will most likely be Langston Hughes biographical paper with an addition of a critical analysis as well. I’m using information from a couple of different sources but mainly using BMCC Database.

Hi Victoria,
I am also writing about “Salvation” by Langston Hughes. Good choice of secondary sources. “Salvation” is a good example of an unconventional coming-of-age story. Even ending negatively we know it did change his outlook on religion. I’ve found in my own research a lot of the sources on the BMCC Database aren’t available so I wish you luck in finding sources!
