Abstract The name of this essay is: A content analyze of the expanded conception of text – in the School curriculum’s for the subjects Swedish, Arts, Philosophy, and Religion by Maria Tollstedt (spring semester 2008), supervisor is Heike Graf. This essay is about the expanded conception of text. The theory for this work is the professor in literature Marshall McLuhans theories about Media being extensions of our bodies from the book Understanding Media (1964). The essay also discus and gives examples of definitions of what a text can be. This work examines and analyzes in what way the expanded conception of text implicitly and explicitly is being used in different Swedish governing school documents. More precisely the School curriculum’s concerning the four subjects: Swedish, Arts, Philosophy, and Religion. The essay analyzes if the use of the expanded conception of text differs depending on which subjects the documents are addressing and if they are aimed and written for primary school or high school. The conclusion of this work is that the expanded conception of text is not often explicitly used in the examined documents, and whether it is often implicitly used is a matter of interpretation.
