/lit/ - Literature

it's money laundering.

It's very difficult to buy 20 child sex slaves for your international yacht dungeon or a warehouse full of cocaine in the 21st century. But if you buy a banana duct taped to a canvas for $2,000,000 no one bats an eye. Everyone who owns a Picasso or a Jackson Pollock is a human trafficker or an arms dealer and should be publicly executed.

I'm gonna unethical you

Oh look, it's another idiot on twitter giving out free opinions.

What's the topic of the day? Oh racism? Again? How's it feel that a racist white man has accomplished more writing racist literature than your years of virtue signaling, social climbing and slacktivism ever has?

>tfw you realize Saddam and Gaddafi were both based af

Fuck NATO and fuck the neocon kikes

Serious question: how do you (personally) read poetry? I usually read novels or drama and I never really know how to approach poems. How many times should I read a poem? How do I choose what to read from a given poet's collected works? I guess I'm just asking for tips

>When I think of the Aeneid, do I really think of Virgil as sitting down and rationally conceiving of the story? Or did the story just come to him, and he more or less channeled it? What about Shakespeare? How much of Shakespeare is true rational craft, and how much "revealed aesthetics?"
whats the point of asking questions that cant be answered, all you've discussed is the RESULT of an artist's work. no where do you have any pretense to make claims about the CAUSE or SOURCE of an artist's work

I know just the quote for you, OP.

>These yelling Monsters that with ceasless cry / Surround me, as thou sawst, hourly conceiv'd / And hourly born, with sorrow infinite / To me, for when they list into the womb / That bred them they return, and howle and gnaw / My Bowels, thir repast; then bursting forth / A fresh with conscious terrours vex me round, / That rest or intermission none I find.

nothing says "I enjoy unemployment" quite like a literature tattoo.

It's a hell of a lot more rigorous than anything I've read in this entire thread, which amounts only to, "I don't believe it and you hurt my feelings, so you're wrong. Q.E.D., pleb!" and some guy trying to evangelize on 4chan. If you're actually interested in reading about the proofs given for God's existence, I gave you a place to start. Feel free to read up on Descartes and all the rest of them too. Trying argue this stuff without having any foundation or knowledge of it is pointless regardless of what you're trying to prove or disprove.

OP I do not think you are telling the truth. If you were really educated enough to be a teacher you would know what resting treatment, and Hysteria are. You would at least know enough to google lesson plans. No you have to be a lazzy kid doing home work.

Hey /lit/, do you think anyone would read a fantasy novel with a monstergirl protagonist? How much of a challenge would it be to write the odd body movements needed for such an undertaking?

So basically no emotions are authentic expression because there is some material process behind them?

In order for love to be genuine you want it to somehow exist independently of the brain?

Please give us your definition for authentic love OP.
