World Literature in the Era of Multinational Capitalism
The post is of two assignments
1:World Literature in the Era of Multinational Capitalism”Film, Yellow Earth and Fredric Jameson’s essay World Literature in the Era of Multinational Capitalism”
Write a 3-4 page paper, double spaced, through an argument based analysis of film: Yellow Earth ( you can watch for free on youtube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEqfyZGYVrM )
– QUESTION: In Fredric Jameson’s Essay “Third World Literature in the Era of Multinational Capitalism,” he argues that all third world texts should be read as allegories. He received a lot of backlash for this seemingly reductive viewpoint. Do you agree or disagree? Using Yellow Earth (film) as an example, argue for your point of view.
2:Emotional Intelligence –
• What is emotional intelligence – start with Salovey and Mayers original definition ……then move onto Goleman, Reuben’s and others.., including more current definitions.
• What are the different definitions of Emotional Intelligence and how do they differ from each other?
• Ask the question can EI actually be measured?
• Look at the different researchers views on this.
• Also, look the researchers assumptions around Emotional Intelligence and critique these e.g. is there an assumption that good leaders have high EI? Is always the case – use current evidence to discuss (peer review articles) – look at research that disputes the assumptions – evidence based i.e. peer-reviewed articles?
• Explore other assumptions around EI and dispute them with evidence (reference)
