Which readings did you particularly enjoy?

Which readings did you find less enjoyable/interesting/relevant that you might suggest removing or replacing for future versions of the course?

Have you found readings in the course of your annotated bibliography/final paper research that might be appropriate and interesting for inclusion in future versions of the course?  (If so, please include a complete citation so I can find it!)
