Embedded within this page are web articles on the four theories (Aesthetics, Metaphor, Marxism, Feminism) listed for this piece of coursework. Below are PDF copies of the articles & accompanying PPts. The articles are designed to be informative, a little challenging, and citeable (everything between the main title and the Works Cited list); Works Cited is hyperlinked as far as is possible (apologies for the apparent bias towards Amazon here; I may well change this over time).
The articles are in no ways exhaustive or definitive. They are, to the best of my abilities, "serviceable." Inevitably, though, they reflect their author's (perhaps all to obvious) biases and (certainly all too obvious) academic limitations. These will be evident in the repeated reference, across the series, to particular critics and schools of thought. The repeated reference to particular texts is deliberate - a nod to numerous enjoyable and stimulating classroom discussions with my Year 13 Lit. group (2012-13).
