In this episode, Matias guides Clarence as he wanders through Wildbow’s wonderful Web-Serial for the first time. This is the Perspectives episode for Arcs 1-8, so here they brought several literary theories to look at these arcs with, focusing mostly on Foucault and Marx.

Next week is the Overview episode for Arcs 9-14, where they’ll cover the most key moments and themes from that section.

Discuss the episode and leave your Questions for Clarence and Themes and Theories for Arcs 9-14 here! https://www.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/gsr7hs/decomposing_worm_episode_2_perspectives_on_arcs_18/?
