Hello! My name is Bernadette Murphy. I am an expected May 2020 graduate for the ODU BA in English with a concentration in Linguistics and a minor in Spanish. In the Fall semester of 2018, I took a Critical Theory class. This website outlines the work I completed throughout the entirety of the semester. In compiling all of my writing in addition to explanations of each theory into one place, I have given myself a powerful tool to utilize in moving through my degree. This website will benefit me not only while I am in school, but also upon graduating. I am very interested in finding a career related to linguistics, and understanding the language goes hand in hand with understanding the criticisms of it.
