| Description |
"In the last fifteen years, works such as Bridget Jones Diary: a Novel, Twilight, and Fifty Shades of Grey have been published to wide readership and extensive popular appeal. ... What is popular is not always great literature, but that has no impact on the demand and attention such works have achieved. ... My intention with my MENG final project was [to] use some of the humorous and satirizing devices employed by Cervantes, including manipulating the narration, using parody, and subduing popular texts in a fictional account of a would-be writer who attempts to achieve fame and fortune by integrating elements of the popular works mentioned above in one novel. This paper chronicles my struggles, failure, and successes of this endeavor." |
