Democracy, Governance, and the Digital Network

On Tuesday we will be reading two short stories. The first, Murders in the Rue Morgue, is a famous piece of detective fiction by Edgar Allen Poe. Do yourself a favor and don’t read anything about this story elsewhere prior to reading the story, that way you can avoid any spoilers.

Second read A Medieval Romance by Mark Twain. The story can be found on pages 198-208 of this google book version.

You should print out both stories and bring them to class with you.
