Thursday 19 February – just how to entangle.... Paoletti, scholarly trajectories, present in time/s

• READ: Read as much of Paoletti as you can: pay attention to your reading practices and what strategies you used to prepare to talk to the author! Bring questions and ideas to share. You could compare your own practices with those described here in a wonderful leaflet How to Read: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BzmKs1Fz7m9uNGM3NzVhNjctYmQ3MC00MTdmLTg4NGQtOTIxNGIwNTc5MGJm/edit?ddrp=1&pli=1&hl=en
• ALSO READ: Sandoval. Some already tried the book in two hours program. Others did the index last time. Everyone should read Part III, especially getting through Chap 4. Why that chapter in particular?

•RECOMMENDED: Burgett & Mendler, eds. 2014 (2nd ed). Keywords for American Cultural Studies. TERMS: Tu, "Fashion" (104-106); Rohy, "Time" (242-245).
•ALSO RECOMMENDED: on the Wikipedia: "Textiles," here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textile

Come prepped to talk with our visitor! Jo Paoletti will probably talk to us for about 20 mins, then we can all question and think together for the next 40 mins, then break. We will see what emerges to continue on with for the rest of the class. 

Being prepped will make a big difference and help us all work together in fascinating ways! Look up Paoletti on the web and the books reviewed and whatever you can find! She has been widely interviewed!
