Virtual Lightbox? computing in health-care?

Hello everyone - I'm new around, and I have been just «eavesdropping». But
this one I is on my field. I have been teaching literary studies to
undergraduates for about 20 years, and there is an article that I keep
recommending - it's a relic now, I suppose: Roland Barthes, L'Analyse
Structurale du Récit (Communications 8, Seuil, 1966). There is an English
translation - Introduction to the Structural Analysis of Narrative - by
Stephen Heath, in Image, Music, Text (Fontana, 1977), reprinted in a Susan
Sontag's book - A Barthes Reader, Hill and Wang (July 1, 1983),(p.251). Hope
this is the kind of thing you are looking for.
Best regards
Helena Barbas

Dear colleagues,

I am designing a course in which 4 disciplines are to be considered by
undergraduates for how they use digital resources. Before I get to listing
which are in fact used, I'd like the students to understand in a broad sense
how each works -- what sort of questions it entertains, what it accepts as
answers or responses, what sort of language is employed and so forth. My
colleague John Lavagnino suggested that for each discipline I should be
giving the students an article to read, specifically one in which the
audience comprises others in the field. So I need recommendations for
exemplary articles.

The disciplines are philosophy, history, literary studies and archaeology --
chosen precisely for the differences in what each considers a resource to
be. Of course the practices within each vary widely, so choosing one article
is a bit problematic. But if you wanted someone (say a daughter or son) to
get a grip on what each of those disciplines is all about, and you wanted to
make sure said person did the homework, what articles would you choose?

Many thanks.

Yours,
WM
