You will choose any one of the thinkers(Karl Marx- is the chosen thinker) we cover in the first half of this class and prepare a bibliographic essay.

Remember: All I am asking is for you to tell me how authors make use of theoretical ideas that come from some of the thinkers we are analyzing.(Karl Marx)

with the five sources here is what you have to do:
a. You will have a heading that indicates the source:
i. For a journal article give the name of the author, title of article, name of the journal, volume number, edition number, and date of publication, along with page numbers
ii. For a book give the name of the author, title of the book, name of the publisher, date of the publication, and page numbers.
iii. If the book is an edited collection with many authors, you will give the name of the author, the editor(s) of the book, the title of the book, the name of the publisher, year of publication, and page numbers.
b. Then you will write a one to two-paragraph summary in which you will tell us
i. What the author is talking about (say, reality tv)
ii. What aspect of the thinkers writing (Marx’s concept of class, say) is being applied to the thing under study (say, reality tv)
iii. The way that author is applying that concept (say, a specific reality television program “Project Runway” or “Here Comes Honey Boo Boo”)

Note: not that Marx inspires them, but how they are inspired by Marx.
