Thomas C. Foster - How to read literature like a professor
Every trip is a quest (except when it's not)
Nice to eat with you: acts of communication
Nice to eat you: acts of vampire
Now, where have i seen her before?
When in doubt, it's from shakespeare
.... or the bible
Hanseldee and Greteldum
It's greek to me
It's more than just rain and snow
Never stand next to the hero
....More than it's gonna hurt you: concerning violence
Is that a symbol?
It's all political
Yes, she's a christ figure, too
Flights of fancy
It's all about sex...
...Except sex
If she comes up, it's baptism
Geography matters...
....So does seasons
Marked for greatness

It's never just heart disease.... And rarely just illness
Don't read with your eyes
It's my symbol an i'll cry if i want to
Is he serious? and other ironies
A test case
