I was eating dinner yesterday at the Thai restaurant near campus and listening to these earnest early 20-something lovebirds discussing some aspect of their relationship and trying to relate it to Plato's cave story. And they both told each other how they thought the cave story went, and they both got it pretty much wrong. One of them was much closer than the other, but they decided that since the point they were trying to make with the story was more or less the same, that they were right enough. They were able to make their point and move on with their discussion. And part of me was like, that's totally not what the point of that story is, and part of me was like, hunh, they found a story that had relevence to their lives and what they were talking about, and that seems cool.

heh. I would say "cultural logic," but I'm not sure what that is.

"Many of the literary techniques we now think of as 'postmodern' can be found in abdundance in Don Quixote."

"Many of the literary techniques we now think of as 'postmodern' can be found in abundance in Tristam Shandy."

Was it John Stuart Mill who had the line about the best society being the one people would arrange democratically if they were then to be assigned roles and positions in that society at random?

Why would I have taken Media Studies?

― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 21:10 (seventeen years ago) link

You're missing an italics tag there.

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 21:11 (seventeen years ago) link

Why would I have taken media studies? (Why did you capitalize it? It is a class not a major.)

― lord pooperton (ex machina), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Herodotus, Thucydides, Gibbon

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 21:12 (seventeen years ago) link

Gibbons, Lemurs, Bonobos

(I am flashing back to the semester I took a classics overview and a class about primates at the same time.)

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 21:13 (seventeen years ago) link

(Why did you capitalize it? It is a class not a major.)

This is for another thread, perhaps, but I'd be more inclined to capitalize the name of a class than the name of a major. As in: "I took History 101 last quarter since I plan to be a history major."

― jaymc (jaymc), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 21:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I'll be over in the corner reading YA if anyone needs anything.
