Introduction

  • This text discusses the concept of self-representation and how people narrate their own lives, often revealing their values, motivations, and societal norms. It also explores the study of self in literature and other forms of media.

Writing about the self

  • Real-world example: Social media platforms, like Instagram, where people share snippets of their lives and express their thoughts and beliefs.
  • Study note: Writing about ourselves can reveal a lot about our values, motivations, and societal norms, even if we don't intend to.

Exploring intertextuality

  • Study note: "Intertextuality" means how texts influence each other. The assignment encourages students to look at how different texts about the self can be interconnected and how they represent the self.
  • Real-world example: Fan fiction often borrows characters and settings from original works, creating intertextual links.

Writing & reading the self

  • Study note: This section discusses how people enjoy reading about others' experiences, perspectives, and secrets. It's about how we project our thoughts and ideas in different mediums like Snapchat, Facebook, YouTube, etc.
  • Real-world example: Reading personal blogs or watching vlogs on YouTube allows us to peek into others' lives and perspectives.
