We will analyze texts from a wide range of media, genres, and historical periods, including but not limited to selections of early modern and Modernist poetry, Mary Shelley's _Frankenstein_, Gloria Naylor's _Mama Day_, George Bernard Shaw's _Pygmalion_, selections from Ovid's _Metamorphoses_, and selections from the EMC Pepys Ballad Archive, among other "new media." |
