Bataan Death March

	Biography of William Shakespeare
		There were legacies to his daughter Judith Quiney and his sister Joan Hart, and remembrances to friends both in Warwickshire and in London; but the real estate was left to his sister Susanna Hall under a strict entail which points to a desire on the part of the testator to found a family.
		A month after his will was signed, on the 23rd of April 1616, Shakespeare died, and as a tithe-owner was buried in the chancel of the parish church.
		The Shakespearian drama is magnificent and incoherent ; it belongs to the adolescence of literature, to a period before the instrument had been sharpened and polished, and made unerring in its touch upon the sources of laughter and of tears.

	Revaluating Ben Jonson
		The 1616 Folio was Jonson's most audacious piece of literary self-presentation, one that claimed classic status for his plays, masques and poems and presented them as parts of a unified corpus inspired by his high conception of the poet's calling.
		This is characteristic of many contemporary approaches to literature; in a recent critique of cultural materialism, John J.Joughin observes that its characteristic note of 'dissidence began to be discharged and indeed measured in terms of its ability to cause localised friction in individual departments or rekindle old flames across broader collegiate rivalries' (Joughin 1997: 276).
		This would seem to suggest that, far from contributing to its dissolution, the oppositional aesthetic merely serves to strengthen the notion that literature, literary study, and the performance of 'literary' texts in the theatre are only suitable for an educated public.

	Ben Jonson
		The sunshine of court favor, rarely diffused during her reign in rays otherwise than figuratively golden, was not to bring any material comfort to the most learned of her dramatists, before there was laid upon her the inevitable hand of which his courtly epilogue had besought death to forget the use.
		His powers as a dramatist were at their height during the earlier half of the reign of James I; and by the year 1616 he had produced nearly all the plays which are worthy of his genius.
		By the year 1616 Jonson seems to have made up his mind to cease writing for the stage, where neither his success nor his profits had equalled his merits and expectations.

	Are Screenplays Literature? Part Three
		The argument in favor of screenplays being literature must begin with a reminder: not all novels or poems or stage plays are considered to be "literature." Those who put down screenwriting as an activity somehow less "literate" than writing poetry or fiction often forget this.
		Whatever literature is -- and philosophers have been arguing this point for centuries -- surely we can agree that just because someone writes a "poem," this poem is not automatically classified as literature.
		Other observers have pointed out that literature is written to be read aesthetically; that it emphasizes character over plot; that it must be worth re-reading; that it contains enduring human themes; that it is the opposite of trash.

	AML 2410-1616
		This course introduces Asian American literature and examines some of critical issues it raises--racial stereotypes, the intersection of race and gender, identity and performativity, (im)migration, and the nation, among others.
		The point of the class, therefore, is not necessarily to seek for some neat definition of Asian American literature.
		Rather, as the course subtitle--from Sau-ling Cynthia Wong's two key terms--suggests, we will pay close attention to the ways in which texts identified as Asian American challenge, complicate, allude to, and build upon each other, as well as to the cultural, economic, historical, and intellectual contexts from which Asian American texts have emerged.
