I will be teaching a freshman comp course at Rocky this fall in conjunction with an introductory business course. This means, for one thing, that this site probably will go dormant again for a while. More significantly, it means I am in the market for ideas to marry the two courses.
One possible avenue is a literary approach to business. Possible titles that have occurred to me, or that have been suggested to me, include:
Babbitt
Death of a Salesman
Liar's Poker
Bartleby the Scrivener (a must!)
an essay by Thoreau
Studs Terkel's "Working"
The Jungle
Dead Souls
Barbarians at the Gate
Any thoughts? I can't think of much literature that takes a positive view of business, but I may be overlooking something.
