Literary Theme Songs

Today we take a look at Pride and Prejudice from the lens of the Levels of Consciousness, a model developed by Seth Atwater.

We're kicking off the second season of Literary Theme Songs with the book Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen! We're gonna be making a few changes around here, so tune in to bet up to date on how things'll work from now on.

Dracula by Bram Stoker is such a primal and powerful story and such an interesting character, he probably deserves two theme songs, right? Fortunately Duran Duran and Eric Carmen have us covered with their songs Hungry Like the Wolf and Hungry Eyes respectively. Get ready to get chills, because we have a creepy episode for you today!

The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne is one of the greatest American novels of all time. It's heroine, Hester Prynne, is subject to discrimination and ostracization because of her past mistakes and has no one to turn to in the harsh new world that she's been thrust into. It's a heartbreakingly beautiful story, and we've paired it with a heartbreakingly beautiful song: Guilded cage by Blackmore's Night.
