Blog Buddies

My blog buddy from my class is Rajan.

Rajan is studying Prison Break as well and is looking at the representation of the troublesome, from ethnicities to the traditional white male protagonist.

Therefore, our areas of overlap is obviously our main texts but we are also studying Propp's theory of character roles, blaxploitation and genre theory.

Propp's theory can be applied to Prison Break as each character is either a hero, helper, donor, princess, villain etc and this effects the way in which they are represented. Stereotypes of these roles is also an area of both of our studies.
