MW 4-5:30 | 225 Wheeler |
Carroll, L.: The Annotated Alice; Lear, E.: The Complete Nonsense; Seuss, Dr.: Horton Hatches the Egg; Seuss, Dr.: Your Favorite Seuss
This course will explore the relationship between two characteristics of these classic works of nonsense literature for children. One is their foregrounding of linguistic form, shared with language games and of obvious special interest to children learning language. The other is their backgrounding of conventional linguistic meaning, allowing not only overt creation of imagined worlds but also covert critique of real ones, including educational practices, class distinctions, imperialism, capitalism and even philology.
