For 105: Ourselves Among Others, Seeing and Writing (both from Bedford St. Martin's) Just a general observation on 106 texts--most of them are extremely large (and expensive)and while the variety is nice, I'd really love to see more small, manageable readers for 106.

Acting Out Culture is structured wonderfully, but some of the articles are odd. I must pick and choose carefully to create complimentary readings.

Making Literature Matter is expensive and its drama section is very very weak. There must be better texts out there than this one for our department.
