Gender and Marxist Approaches to Literature Discussion
Question Description
Our third and final unit in this course: Taking a Critical Approach to Literature. You will be reading the graphic novel, Watchmen, and in preparation for that, we will be reading some scholarly articles over the next few weeks about five different ways we can use a critical lens to approach a piece of literature. This week, you read two articles: “Gender Evolution in Graphic Novels” and “Marxism and Consumer Culture.” Now that you have read these articles carefully, address the following discussion prompt:
For each article, choose 1-2 claims or ideas that you found interesting. Include those claims word-for-word using quotation marks, and be sure to include a page number for each one. Then, explain why you thought that claim or idea was interesting. Be sure to organize your post logically, and make it clear which claim came from which article/author.
You will respond to my initial thread. Your introduction, as all of your discussion posts this semester, should be 200-400 words. You do not need to include this word count; however, use the word count at the bottom right corner of the text box to ensure you are staying within the appropriate range. It is also recommended that you type your responses this semester into a Word document so that you can proofread your work and save it for your records or later access.
