The Plot Thickens...

Well, I've been off doing spring break type things. Per a recommendation from Mr. Reynolds, that included reading a Terry Eagleton book entitled "The Idea of Culture." I'm not very far into it, but I think the book will prove useful. Also, I wrote my subject librarian. I had mostly resigned myself to using popular sources for hipster-specific material and academic sources for general information about culture, but I didn't want to limit my research to such without consulting an expert. The subject librarian provided me with several article and book recommendations and an invitation to meet with her. I highly recommend using the subject librarians for help with any research roadblocks. I will be considering the sources mine provided in the weeks to come. Cheers!

    So glad you looked into the Eagleton book and are finding your conversations with the Subject Librarians helpful. Keep up the fantastic work. (Great pic on your blog, too)

    Bro I'm intrigued and impressed by your working thesis, intelligence, and topic. I was considering writing about the subculture "Hipsters" also. Check out this blog "Hipsterrunoff.com" as a popular resource. (The first post/ older post have more content and depth.)
