[quote=Anonymous]I feel like English college courses are the kind of thing every thinks they will love, but ends up hating. I loved reading and writing and hated my English classes. Because it turns out that you can’t get tenure by essentially teaching a book club. So all the professors need some “fresh take” on the books everyone has read forever. So, yeah, you’re gong y dole a Marxist critical race theory exegesis of Jane Austen, because that’s how people get published. (Actually the only article I remember really liking were the ones that talked about legal stuff that affected the Austen books, like inheritance law — those books made so much more sense when you inderstood all that!). I just wanted to read the books — I didn’t want to dissect and do a post mortem on them. [/quote]
