L660: Dr. Seuss: Seussian Language and Parable in Splash! Fall 2010 (Oct. 02, 2010)

While Dr. Seuss may be taught almost exclusively to elementary school students, is it wise to abandon his teachings as we age? This course will examine, in-depth, the function of parables through time with emphasis placed upon the parables of Dr. Seuss and their relationship to historical/contemporary political and social thought. Additionally, the course will examine the rhetorical devices used within the works and how they help to establish Dr Seuss's message.
