Week #11: White Teeth & Marxism.

Last posts of the semester. Finish White Teeth and read the article on Marxism. As was briefly mentioned tonight, Marxism has significant influence in literary theory, so you should think about how some of the other theories work through Marxist ideas. Additionally, how might Marxism play a part in the novel?

Please think about your paper topics over the break and e-mail me with your ideas. I'm not sure what my internet access will be like during the break, but I'll make an effort to sign on when I can. I won't be on campus again until Tuesday, 4/29, but you're free to stop by during my office hours then and chat about your ideas with me.

I'll talk about the final portfolio next time.

Have a great break!
