A ridiculous excuse.
humph I don't care.
ok then so here is another snippet at literature and a short really brief moment into my really mundane life. which i trust that your life is as mundane to because your looking at my blog sigh ....
GET A LIFE !!!!!!!!!!
now back to literature
yes you might be screaming : Its all Greek to me ! and yes in fact Myth has been around since, well god knows when.
Myth is a body of stories that matters in each community, the have their own separate myths
and stories
Be it Germanic, Irish, American, European
IT IS NOT JUST ROMAN AND GREEK MYTH !!!
myth can be overt subject matter for poems and art (like duh....)
So the question now is : Why would a 20th Century author draw on mythology ?
Walcott reminds us of the parallel of the potential of greatness that resides in us, no matter how humble our worldly circumstances are
Many writers have emulated Homer's Illiad
Virgil patterns the Aeneas according to Homeric works
the parallels can often be ironised
writers use a large part of the body of a story as mythology. readers recognize it.
This recognition makes the story much much more meaningful
Walcott's omeros means in local dialect, -Homeric ....Naturally
Now I trust that because of the lack of flow of the post you might actually have a desire for my murder. so... I don't care. (no not really)... (NO NO SERIOUSLY... i dont care )
so now onto life...
I am bloody tired, sparred today with a bunch of friends, really shack and about to collapse, yet I am still here typing... (you really should be grateful)
Must have sleep...zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
Apart from that, facebook has been growing onto me, it has become the starting link i click, (hmmm i should control myself) anyway, this is my second post for today so i guess you can already tell how bored I am.
I should just slit my wrist and dance in my blood (sorry inside joke)
JUMP FOR JOY : EXAMS ARE OVER ... A levels have just begun
read the fine print... absolutely disgusting !!!!
Be still my beating heart. the rest is silence AHHHHHHH Shakespeare !
