LESSON OF THE 20th SEPTEMBER


REMEMBER:

 

· Literary

· Painting                                   are all forms of art,

· Sculpture                                 but they have many differences.

· Music

                                           

 

Arts produces and generates emotions, pleasure that is positive or negative reactions.

 

Literature is made up of words, painting is made up of colours, sculpture of marble.

Each form of art uses different ingredients and tools.

 

Whenever poets write, they must follow a strict disciplined technique so their language (the language they use) is charged with a lot of meanings and that is why poetry arouses and stirs  several emotions.

 

Literary texts send a lot of messages but not always are they the same for all people. They may be all correct because every reader provides a personal interpretation of the text (but interpretation is not free).

In order to advance an interpretation, we must be able to advance an interpretation which is supported by a textual references.

WHAT LITERATURE IS IN MY OPINION

I think literature is a form of art, like music, painting, sculpture, cooking and one more, beacause the writer is an artist, one who uses words to express his thoughts, fellings and emotions.

 

The literature is a form of art that it wrote in the past by men and women that they wanted tell us somethings about their ways of thinking and which were their emotions in that moment.

 

As the writer also painter, musician , sculptor and cook represent a form of art, even if they express their emotions in different ways, for example by food, colours and more artistic tools.

 

Last year I analyzed and studied some literature text and I colud find new interpretetion and feel new emotions.

 

 

Sometimes, some words and a picture can describe all the emotions of an arist.
