This Week and Orgsync

[Joshua]

Hey all,

Over the next few weeks, we'll be switching to Orgsync and no longer
using Google Groups. More information will come, but this will give us
a great opportunity to see how many people are active on our mailing
list, negate spammers, and give us more advertising.

When I chose the Foucault article, I didn't realize the magnitude of
discussion it would spurn. So, per request, we will continue our
discourse about discourse by discussing the article "What is an
Author" more. King Center 320 at 5PM Thursday, February 17th.

Text of this can be found at http://www.scribd.com/doc/10268982/Foucault-What-is-an-Author?
(print by clicking "download" and get as a pdf or txt, then print) or
http://www.generation-online.org/p/fp_foucault12.htm for an html
version.

If you didn't make to the last meeting or had difficulty with the
reading, please feel free to join us. It's a difficult read that
discussion will hopefully open up.

And you may consider researching 'the death of the author', because
that's what he's explicitly investigating. Check out this site for the
article by Barthes (http://evans-experientialism.freewebspace.com/
barthes06.htm) or Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Death_of_the_Author) for more information.

See you all in King Center 320 at 5PM Thursday, February 17th.
