How to Read Literature Like a Professor (Intr-21-22)

9-5-12

Interlude- One Story
    All works of literature are all parts of a ONE STORY. Whenever and where ever someone is writing they are borrowing bits and pieces of other stories, movies, and life experiences therefore no work is complete originality.

Chapter 21- Marked for Greatness
    Scars or diseases hint towards things in characters' pasts. These marks may make the characters hard on the eyes, but in most cases, these "monsters" have fabulous personalities. This is why many main characters, the "good guys," and questers have scars; just because they look bad doesn't mean they are bad.

Chapter 22-He's Blind for a Reason, You Know
    Like other ailments in the last chapter, having blindness as a disability has symbolism too. In most cases, even though blind people can't literally see, they have a gift to see the truth.
