Throughout the course of this class, as I have been blogging and thinking about all of our readings I cannot help but notice a general trend. Literary criticism seems to closely parallel many of the larger concerns and questions in the world today. So far I have observed connections with social hierarchies, psychology, capitalism, questions of life and death etc. Some people might scoff at the study of literature, but it is become more and more apparent every day just how relevant this type of criticism is. It goes far beyond books and text and into the world itself.
