Welcome to English 2000: Globalization and Literature (Perspectives in Literature)

Hello Students of Globalization and Literature!

This site will grow and develop during the semester, just like you will continue to grow and develop as critical readers and writers.

If you have any questions, please let me know via email:

sscanlan@citytech.cuny.edu

The course policy and weekly schedule are located on the menu bar. Take some time to look around our course site; we will refer to it often.

Today, we will look over a brief example of globalization and global homesickness from Marjane Satrapi’s graphic novel titled Persepolis. Then, if there is time, we will view a brief interview with the author:

Interview with Marjane Satrapi

Below are some interesting and informative posts from last semester. I think that they are still relevant.

Best wishes,

Prof. Scanlan

Hi Class,

Many of you might be on Facebook, and you also might know that privacy is not really granted in the online world. This article from Time Magazine makes it clear that you need to be extra careful about what kind of information you put on your social media pages because colleges or employers—almost anybody—can gain access to it.
