Since I'm about to embark on my reading lists, I'd like to create a model for how I'll read and take notes. Undoubtedly, this will change and shift as I read; however, I think it might be a useful activity to have considered as I approach reading. I'd like to take a little bit of space after each text to summarize them. Note which questions from my list they will be relevant to (and a few comments as to how). I'd like to note down any references to nonhuman bodies (especially in my rhetorics of the body list) by page number. Finally, to jot down any lingering questions or connections to other texts I notice.
When I label them then, I can use Activism1 (body1, animal1) to indicate the relevance to the first question on the activism list (etc.). This will help in my returning to study, as well as when I return to the texts in the future.
I'd also like to build in some time to reflect on the texts and see if alternate questions or categorizations would be more useful. Perhaps each week, I should take an hour or so to write reflectively about what I've read so far and the ideas that are bubbling up from them for me.
Argument:
Relevance to List Questions:
References to Nonhuman Bodies:
Important quotations:
Connections or Lingering Questions:
