What do I read after I am done with the Danaans? Do I get the keys to the 20th century canon yet?

Should I read more than just Homer, Plato and general summaries of other myths?

The Greeks were crazy about their heros all having interactions with each other. Its like an ancient soap opera

So I watched a conference of david harvey about the end of capitalism and I got really interested into marx.

Any marxist here?

What can you tell me about the end of the capitalism and it's relation with todays world.

Pls no anti-marxist shitposting, I really want a serious discussion.

Why is so common for writers to dismiss any attemp at formulate any good theory of what works and doesn't work in literature?

I found that pretty much all the others arts (music, poetry, painting, drawing, animation, film) has a corpus of theory and some canonical books to teach new artists to learn the craft.

Of course there has been some writers who tried to formulate a workflow and tried to discuss about what works and doesn't work and formulate some guidelines (rules) to create good art.

I only see screenwriters barelly discussing them.

Most writers are just:
But a workflow will kill creativity.
Writing is just diferent.

Is this really common among writers?
I see they try to write something by just brute force and hoping to land some magical luck.
