ci-theory-and-method
Use to choose and deploy the theoretical framework and critical method of a Critical Inquiry (CI) essay so theory does real analytic work on objects. CI is a leading theory journal across the humanities; this skill helps select a lens (hermeneutic, deconstructive, psychoanalytic, materialist, postcolonial, media-theoretical, etc.), use concepts precisely, and avoid jargon-as-decoration. It guides theoretical craft; it does not invent sources.
