Many Americans tend to think of communism and socialism as synonymous. When either of these ideologies is mentioned, it invokes a certain sense of fear. Much of this fear stems from lack of understanding. Parker, Fournier, & Reedy (2007) defined communism as a society where the community jointly owns all the property and means of production instead of the individual, with the goal of abolishing states and social classes (p. 54).

Mainstream and critical literary judgments rarely intersect. Paradoxically, scholars often regard a novel’s popularity as indicative of its ‘unliterariness’, prompting fervent backlash.

the Jewish community: Cohn and his family were warnings to anyone else selling without a coupon that this to would be their outcome (Spiegleman, 1986 p. 83). Vladek reflects that still to this day the event has the same emotional effect on him, as if it happened yesterday (Spiegleman, 1986, p. 84).

recollection of the events (Poovey, 1986). Because of Snow’s use of chloroform throughout November caused an argument to arise about the nature of labour and the mastering of women, however enthusiasm decreased after Queen Victoria was administered chloroform for the deliveries of her eighth and ninth child (Snow 2008). The debate reacquired control after Snow voiced his opinion “chloroform can do what others cannot which is a deep sleep without long periods of energy” (Poovey, 1986) and with…
