Television and the Teenage Literate: Discourses of Felicity

Margaret Mackey

Abstract

Investigates questions of what the New London Group calls "multiliteracies." Looks carefully at various texts associated with the television show "Felicity" and considers what they have to say about contemporary popular literacies. Considers how "Felicity" acts as a kind of core sample, extracted from the broader soil of popular culture to help explore some workings of contemporary literacies. Discusses implications for the English classroom.
