Abstract
When the literature anthologies did not arrive, Allen Webb turned to the Internet, where he found a wealth of classic and contemporary e-texts. Using these online resources opened up possibilities for new ways of teaching and learning traditional skills of close reading and critical analysis. Students created blogs of poems and commentary, compared versions of The Odyssey and a controversial news story, and manipulated the language and structure of texts to question the cultural and historical contexts of the work.
