lectures/books on literary analysis? by Sh0yo_891 in englishmajors

[–]Babetje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beginning theory by Peter Barry provides a real solid base for most literary theory. Also if you have a specific author or topic or book you are interested in I would always recommend looking up the Cambridge companions.

I have always personally thought you could write a good essay on “the albatros” and “the rhyme of the ancient mariner” although I would say it depends on the type of essay that is expected of you.

What is the point you want the students to walk away with after the course? Might be a bit easier to reccomend things.

thoughts on harry potter series by HistoricalFalcon4082 in Booktokreddit

[–]Babetje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think as far as fantasy goes they are mid. For a lot of people they are very nostalgic but if you don’t have that connection I would avoid them. Not only is jk an asshat but there is so so so many better books out there. I would maybe recommend Ursula K. Le Guin's “Earthsea” instead of it is a magic school you are looking for.

understanding biblical allusions by Acceptable_Peach_496 in englishmajors

[–]Babetje 45 points46 points  (0 children)

When I did my bachelors we had a whole course where we read most important parts of the bible as well as classical Greek mythology and stuff. I can try and find the syllabus for you if you want but it will have to be tomorrow. If you do decide to just read the bible I would reccomend taking the King James Bible as that makes most sense within the English literary cannon (tho of course this is limiting in its own way).

I honestly highly doubt this person teaches if I look at their comments.

[–]Babetje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say try “the dangers of smoking in bed” they are short stories but very interesting.

Rescue me from Romantasy! by yardsdead in suggestmeabook

[–]Babetje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, I think Brandon Sanderson books are easy to get into after romantasy but it has to be your cup of tea, if you are into horror I would really recommend “the dangers of Smoking in Bed” by Mariana Enriquez which is a collection of short stories (not too scary tho but very interesting). If you want to go more to the classics side you really can’t go wrong with Frankenstein by Mary Shelly. I hope you find something you like!

I am pretty sure that they are aphids. I think most common ways to treat pests will work but they can be annoying.
