In the 2008 Summer Session English 384 will be a completely on-line course. The course will officially begin on June 16, and will run for four weeks, ending July 10. Final papers for graduate students in the course will be due on July 24. I have prepared the online syllabus in advance, so I'm inviting you to take an early look at the reading assignments.

You'll need to acquire two books, Philip Smith's Cultural Theory: An Introduction, and Simon During's Cultural Studies: A Critical Introduction. You can find this at the ISU Bookstore, the Alamo, or from Amazon.com or other online booksellers. There will be other readings made available as online texts.

You are welcome to begin reading and viewing the video lectures in advance. Please don't hesitate to send me an email if you have questions or need any assistance I can provide.
