Next semester I’m teaching a class all about literature & pop culture from 1925 (a 100 yr anniversary class). What kinds of secondary readings and history should I assign? What would be on your dream 1925 syllabus?

I’m posting this question again because I’d genuinely like to hear people’s thoughts on university presses asking permission to sell our books to AI:
Did anyone else who published with Cambridge get a request to sign over their work for “AI Subsidiary Aggregation”? They claim we’ll be paid a 20% royalty, but I’m highly suspicious. Are other university presses doing this?

I’m rereading Bob O’Meally’s ‘Antagonist Cooperation’ for a paper I’m writing and forgot what a scathing indictment of Trump it includes! His argument in the intro for “radical inclusiveness” is 🔥
