How do we write and read our own moment? Exploring recent literary texts and transformations of the literary (film, graphic novels, digital texts, gamification, etc.) this module introduces students to the contemporary cultural landscape. Tracing multiple forms of ‘writing’ and ‘reading’, students will gain the capacity to engage creatively with the present and to develop their own critical responses. Flexible and expansive, the course allows students to test cultural forms, create their own written responses, and grasp their own experience of the present.
