The lecture about
interpretation has really taken my attention for quite a while. I actually made
a whole paper about this theme. I was always amazed by the fact that people
always interpret values or beauty differently. And during this one lecture I
learned that perspective is a big factor on people’s interpretation. I remember
Professor Brady standing up the desk to explain that even we all looking at the
same thing we won’t see it the same way in other words in the same perspective.
Fantasy was a huge
theme discussed during this semester. Many texts we have read embodied fantasy
as theme; from “A Street Car Named Desire” to “The Interpreter Of Maladies. They
show how people hide their real situation to live in a fantasy world. The class
discussion has helped me realize that we all do that in smaller scale. One of
my peer’s took scenarios in relationship as an example, when people pretend to
love their partner’s while they are not; their just scared to start something
over. Fantasy is just the easiest way for people to win over their hardship.
"Sacrifice Today
and Enjoy the Glory Tomorrow." Ernesto Rosario Mignano. This quote has
motivated me essentially at the end of this semester when things were getting
harder. That make me think about my own dad who also would tell me over and
over again” success has a price it’s call sacrifice”
Ninel,
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing how you connected our fathers! I am truly impressed with your work this semester. It is not easy to learn content in a language other than your native language and you have taken on the task with pride and fervor! I applaud you
