Summer Reading List

Ah the life of academia. How bizarre! I just finished up (save for some grading next week) with the semester, and now I am kind of in a daze thinking...whoa, what now?

So, to stave off boredom, I'm baking bread and thinking of a reading list to try to tackle this summer. So, with no further ado...

* Pierre Bordieu's Outline of a Theory of Practice

* Kenneth Burke's On Symbols and Society

* Louise Rosenblatt's The Reader, The Text, The Poem: The Transactional Theory of Literary Work

* Cornel West's The American Evasion of Philosophy

* And of course, lots and lots of Dewey.
