Hate "Pride and Prejudice" in the Advance Preliminary course ! SOoooooooooo boring ! Like the "Joy Luck Club", "Empire of the sun"
Don't like "Gwen harwood " poems !!!! Especially the glass Jar!!!

Emma/Clueless.

Great, great module I must say :)

The Shipping News is also awesome. Oh English, how I love you. /nerd.

BTW, that's right. Pokemon > Dragon Ball Z, since pokemon brings all the boys to the yard.

I absolutely loathe Coleridge, but I love Cloudstreet (as of now) - critical study of text has a tendency to kill novels for me.

Medea is also really good, working particularly well with Memento.


I hope Hamlet is as enjoyable...

lol good would it be

As cell looked at gohan with fury, gohan chuckles as he powers up for a Ka-me-ha-me-ha. This juxta poses the two worlds.....

Hey, DBZ wouldn't be too bad for the ext1 course, especially if you studied it as speculative fiction. If LOTR cuts it why shouldn't DBZ? I can already see similar ideas ;D;D

Well LOTR is long considered to be part of the science/fantasy canon, as well as the modern canon, while DBZ is anime, and unless the analysis of it is well done, it will not garner favour from markers. There's inherent bias in teachers' receptions to animated films.

the fool is just some lame attempt at irony and juxtaposition, ultimately useless, still made of fail.
