construct what readers know of authors, narrators, and characters; how =
techniques of concealment operate within literature; how literature can =
be thought of as a mask for the many authorial, cultural and =
philosophical forces that can be discerned beneath its surface and how =
various sorts of masks operate in rhetoric and pedagogy. =20

Presentations will be 15 minutes in length, followed by a discussion =
period. Please identify any special audiovisual needs with your =
