(new)<\/p>\n<p>Update:<\/p>\n<p>After some darts throwing at things I liked, I found I wanted to do more of these primary texts listed above because they struck some significant narrative chord in me that I would like to explore further as a creative and a scholar. I&#8217;m still in the discovery process and I want to rehaul some of my secondary reading to slowly reflect what I might be aiming at for my thesis, but right now it&#8217;s just going with the flow of my interests and like a wise person (read: me) said in class: &#8220;if I ain&#8217;t interested I ain&#8217;t botherin&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Journal to Review:<br \/>\nThe Journal of Popular Culture (https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/journal\/15405931)<\/p>\n<p>Keywords:<br \/>\nMass media , film\/television studies, Genre, <\/p>\n<p>I developed this list with some assistance from Professor Greg Steirer in our very own English department. I am currently still a little undecided in my focus of scholarship, but I am primarily interested in mass media and visual media, especially more of the popular culture kind. This includes things like anime, manga, comics, video games, television and film. I am curious about publication histories, cross-media storytelling, the way different media works to tell stories within their format, adaptations, narratives and how diversity plays a part in representational storytelling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Independent Reading List Secondary Works: Asimov, Isaac.
