Here, Schiffer English students will capture your attention and guide you on a deep dive into all things world literature and myth. We will primarily explore the narratives of Latin American, Russian, Middle Eastern, and Asian literature. Thank you for listening!
“In this episode, 3 idiots describe a Russian author's work for its plot, theme, and conflict, as well as shouting at each other and making self-deprecating jokes.
Thank you all for listening! If you have any comments or insults, keep them to yourself. It's better that way. Or just send them to my personal email so they will sit there for a few weeks.”
"In this episode, Darien, Clifton, and Lakya talk about the theme, Orient, and conflict of the short story, "A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.
We hope you enjoy as we tear down this story!"
"In this episode, Laci discusses (with herself) a poem by De la Cruz, "Versus Expressing the Feelings of a Lover," and lightly addresses Asian poet, Su Chen's, "Morning." We will be diving into theme, conflict, comparing both poems, and discussing Latin American literature and Asian literature culture."
"In this episode, Sydney and Denise introduce the short stories "The Prophet's Hair" (1981) and "Good Advice is Rarer than Rubies" (1987) by Salman Rushdie. We will talk about theme, conflict, and the Orient.
Thanks for listening!"
