Litblog: The World Literature Blog

I'll send out e-mail invitations to everyone's Longwood account tonight. You should then be able to register and create your own threads, in addition to posting comments. Let's use this thread to figure out what we're going to do here. Here are a few of my thoughts:

• Remember that the World Lit Wiki, in conjunction with the new Litblog, constitute 25% of your final grade for this course, so let's try to put some energy into the thing. In addition to using the blog space to exchange ideas about the readings, let's use it to talk about how we can do something really useful with the World Lit Wiki.
• As for discussing the literature, let's try to be constructive rather than flippant. This would be a really good place to post questions about things we didn't have time to get to in class, or questions about points of significant confusion.
• Here's an idea that just popped into my head: How about using this place to feature world literature "news"? There's a blog called News on the Rialto that does something like this for Shakespeare. Could we do something similar for world literature?
