- Consciousness is only a small part of our total psychology, the main parts include dreams, fairy tales, myths, and fantasies. Dreams come from your personal conscience.
- For example, Steve had a dream that he was forced to go back to the 3rd grade in order to graduate from college and Luke interpreted that dream to mean that Steve felt a sense of inability be successful in college.
ARCHETYPE- PRIMARY IMAGES
RECOGNITION- "ANAGNORSIS" means recognition in Greek. IT WOULD BE SMART TO THINK ABOUT THIS WORD FOR BOTH OEDIPUS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST FOR THE FINAL!!! just a thought
The Importance of Being Earnest
- Luke found a copy of the book, Political Economy, that Cecily was reading when we were first introduced to her. That is a coincidence!
- A topic to think about is the Ernest vs. Earnest
- Comedy is abut people who are worse than we are -Aristotle
- comedy is also about the affirmation of life
- Tragedy is abut people who are better than we are- Aristotle
- Aristotle also said that all works of literature are somehow woven together.
- Oedipus is the original detective story....psychoanalysis
- Tyresias is blind because he pulled two snakes apart with his stick and Harrah, Zeus' wife, punished him by making him spend 5 years as a woman making love and 5 years as a man making love and once those 10 years were done he was to tell her which sex enjoyed getting to know each other in the biblical sense more. He answered without a doubt, women. She then made him blind.
- So Zeus came down, unable to undo what had already been done, and gave Tyresias the ability to see the future and be a soothsayer. That way since he could not physically see what was around him, he could see what was going to be.
- In that day, being ignorant was far worse than any kind of sin.
- Creon is also questioned about his motives by Oedipus, and Creon is Jocasta's brother therefore Oedipus' brother-in-law and uncle at the same time.
