MSU English 494: Words with Power
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/02/words-with-power.html
Sunday, February 28, 2010. Northrop Frye is probably the smartest literary critic from last century. In a previous class, Dr. Sexson assigned this book, Words with Power, and it has wowed me ever since. I was very surprised to read out a random quote in class and find it not immediately relevant. Here are some better quotes which are more applicable to our class. Words can never directly transmit to our minds anything that is not verbal. Literature is an art of words. It basically reads as a cliffs notes...

MSU English 494: Mything in the Lighthouse
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/03/mything-in-lighthouse.html
Tuesday, March 9, 2010. Mything in the Lighthouse. Dr Sexson said we could find a mythical interpretation of basically anything the book. So I've randomly selected a page, front and back, to read with a mythical interpretation. How can someone truly select a random page from a book without using random.org? She supposed, looking at the thouse, but nothing appeared there. But then, she remembered"! Nothing appears when we look for it but, once we remember, there it is! Shows her sense of love to be equal ...

MSU English 494: Epiphany and Love
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/03/epiphany-and-love.html
Thursday, March 11, 2010. I love this picture that I used in my 2nd post. It really does look like an epiphany to me. What is (mostly) unique to humans and has allowed us to evolve to where we are? The answer is of course "Mythology" but that's besides the point and an entirely different class, even though we've all taken that class before and we just need to remember it, and it is any class we've ever taken with Dr. Mytholo-ah-I-mean-Sexson). Humans are SUPPOSED to be able to do this! She won't marry me?

MSU English 494: MLK Day and 4 Quartets
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/01/mlk-day-and-4-quartets.html
Tuesday, January 19, 2010. MLK Day and 4 Quartets. A day late but oh well. We had the day off anyway! There's a passage during The Dry Salvages section 2 which in some fascinating yet haunting way seems to apply to Martin Luther King Jr. and his presence in the American civil rights movement. Starting at line 200,. The point of intersection of the timeless. With time, is an occupation for the saint-. No occupation either, but something given. And taken, in a lifetime's death in love,. Check out this vide...

MSU English 494: Imagination and Understanding
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/02/imagination-and-understanding.html
Friday, February 12, 2010. Time present and time past. Are both perhaps present in time future,. And time future contained in time past. If all time is eternally present. All time is unredeemable. Towards the door we never opened. Into the rose-garden. My words echo. Thus, in your mind.". I think this is why Four Quartets won a Nobel Prize for Literature among other notable distinctions. I have a good example about this which might mean something to you movie buffs. In The Matrix Reloaded. This awareness...

MSU English 494: God and Creation
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/02/god-and-creation.html
Friday, February 12, 2010. Open picture in a separate tab to reference for this post. Religious reference is all over Burnt Norton and the rest of the poem as well. It's fairly easy to open up a page, scan it, then point to several. However, the context ("context seems to be my theme tonight") in which we view these is somewhat more complex. I chose this image from the Sistine chapel because I feel it encompasses two very important points. Is god trying to touch man? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

MSU English 494: Oh's and Ah's and Yum
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/01/ohs-and-ahs-and-yum.html
Sunday, January 24, 2010. Oh's and Ah's and Yum. I have to dig up a photo from the last potluck. I'll post it sometime this coming week. As for large scale food epiphanies. 8220;Mick, you like hamburgers don't you? 8220;Yes.” I said. 8220;Where do hamburgers come from? I thought about that for a moment and then.).

MSU English 494: Man and War
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/02/man-and-war.html
Friday, February 12, 2010. War is presented not in detail but as an example of how the past recreates the present. The imagery ends with reconciliation "among the stars". Is this reconciliation on a religious level where now the boarhound and the boar are reconciled with god? Is this simply reconciliation on the physical level? Is this reconciliation a false reconciliation? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Are you staying in Bozeman for spring break? Epiphanies. by: Nick San Souci. Obat Penambah gaira...

MSU English 494: Final Paper
http://msuenglish494.blogspot.com/2010/04/final-paper.html
Tuesday, April 20, 2010. I've been busily working away at my paper since spring break and have not updated my blog accordingly. I have notes for several fun blog posts but I'm going to delay them until after I'm finished with my writing. It really is the priority. I find I'm kind of shy about sharing poetry when it feels "rough". Even though I'm nowhere near finished, I should have some good selections of my poem which will remain largely unchanged at this point. So, until I'm finished with my paper.
