    Children's & YA Literature: Theory and Method

    Post by Mattheus Oliviera:

    Although incest in particular isn’t a core concern of mine, a lot of my interests lie in how people imagine non-normative and explicitly taboo romances. It really is an interest in h […]

    Children's & YA Literature: Theory and Method

    Through an extensive study of indigenous writing, Clare Bradford attempts to lay bare the complex ways in which indigenous writers resist the systematic colonization of their culture. This arises from a core […]

    Children's & YA Literature: Theory and Method

    Reading through Tribunella just invokes an appreciation for a good close reading. Other respondents have already noted that this article is a move to queer the canon through a historical recognition of gay […]

    Children's & YA Literature: Theory and Method

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, Barbie's Queer Accessories - Method

    Continuing (and maybe confirming?) your line of questioning on Rand’s pool of sources, I also found it odd for her not to include stories that contradict a lot of what her queer speakers were saying. The only […]

    Children's & YA Literature: Theory and Method

    It was very difficult to read Rand’s work and not gush at both what she does and what I can remember about Barbie. But the most exciting thing about this chapter are Rand’s effort to continuously challenge the mod […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, The Lorax - Response

    One class isn’t enough to talk about the impact of color in Dr. Seuss. It would be weeks of wonderful conversation.

    But as an aside, this was a nice deconstruction of color. We haven’t had much time in class to […]

    Introduction to Liberal Studies ["Oversharing"]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, Revised Paper Topic: Oversharing and Cyber Bullying

    This topic seems perfectly fine (and a serious one to address). I would just throw out a caution to talk about situations of an “overshare.”

    What you will consider an overshare is up to you, but cyber bullying […]

    Introduction to Liberal Studies ["Oversharing"]

    Continuing from our 3/31 discussion, I’ve uploaded 2 consecutive chapters (1 pdf) from Michael Warner’s The Trouble With Normal.

    These chapters reflect on the culture of shame surrounding America’s discussion […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, Why I Hate Abercrombie and Fitch

    Thank you for the early responses!

    I agree with both of you that Reid-Pharr does well with his use of sexual imagery. I don’t actually think medium has much to do with oversharing, but thought that this […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, Final Paper Topic

    Firstly, I think questioning the transitional moment(s) towards womanhood is wonderful topic for discussion. Do you intend to address the biological answer to this question? Periods have long been understood as […]

    Introduction to Liberal Studies ["Oversharing"]

    1) In his open and unapologetic (?) discussion of racist values within gay desire, McBride spends the first 6 pages framing the chapter. This extensive reflection on the topic of discussion, the gay marketplace of […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, Discussion Questions for Writing Seminar Papers in the Humanities

    I would like to second at least an online conversation on:

    3. What would the author define as jargon?

    Questions about language in formal writing do overlap with questions of permissible representations of […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, BYB - Blabbing Your Business

    I think we could benefit to have more scholarly conversations around the psychology of over-sharing moments. This article is a quick way into that conversation.

    However, the lack of proper citations makes me […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, Questions on Moore and Berlant

    1. Perhaps the shortest answer is this: If you are willing to share any particular information online to a group of people whom you can questionably call off on you fingers, then it wasn’t so private a piece of […]

    Mattheus Oliveira commented on the post, The Ethics of Life Writing

    1) The following section, Resolving the Tension, does address this issue of trust. Namely, this reoccurring assumption that trust = a vow of absolute silence. Mills notes that “it wouldn’t make sense to tell [her] […]
