Today’s Class (Thursday, July 16th)

Good morning!! I hope everyone is healthy and safe. As we move into the final few weeks of the class, I thought I would remind you that if you would like to write an original paper instead of taking the final exam, you should schedule a meeting with me this week (please email me to schedule a time).  More details here: https://engl149summer2020.web.unc.edu/course-requirements/

  • Be sure to include basic information about your fanfiction genre or individual work (when it was made and why, anything notable about its form or construction).
  • What is/are the general cultural context(s) we need to know about to understand the fanfiction?
  • What can be said about controversies or conflicts related to your fanfiction?
  • Or what is the scene/plot of your fanfiction?
