"Death of the Author" Explained.

In the course of studying for the terror-inducing comprehensive exams (that he must pass if he hopes to graduate), Ryan does his best to explain a little bit of literary theory. Specifically, poststructuralism and the "Death of the Author" or "Birth of the Reader".

Ha, NERRRRRRRD.

In all reality, making this video was actually fairly helpful in the studying process. Who would have thunk it: teaching material to others helps you internalize said material.
