Studies in Literature: Approaches to Media
Professor Glenn Steinberg
Course Meetings: Monday/Thursday 3:30-4:50pm
You’ve learned how to analyze novels and poetry but do you know how to analyze media? How might some of the cultural theories you have already been introduced to (ecocriticism, gender analysis, Marxism) help you understand and write about various media (such as film, advertising, social media, video games, websites, memes, youtube videos, and theme parks). In this course, students will deepen their understanding of literary theory and its application and relevance to media.
