Final Thoughts...

After a semester of studying theory i can confidently admit that there is plenty that i now understand and even more that confuses me. From liberal humanism to postcolonialism, all of the ideas and theories had been mentioned to me once before, but never this in depth. Particularly i found the theorists behind each theory to be most interesting to learn about, because who and why would these people come up with these theories? It's most interesting to see the passion behind the ideas. The most interesting topics covered i found to be Marxism, Postmodernism, Deconstruction, and Feminism. I think its because they seemed to be the most straightforward theories. What still seems confusing to me is Poststructuralism and psychoanalysis. Overall i learned something new with every theory and along with some confusion, there was a constant interest, and need to then analyze the world around me.
