In today's society…. September 25, 2008. 521 prompt #5, or “unfortunately, my dreams are only like tripping on boring, boring acid.”. On to dreams. I generally envy people who have the sort of dreams Barcy has. You know, the type you read about in books that are always vivid and clear and get turned into prophecy and metaphors for some universal truth. I wish I would have dreams like that. Well, unless I turned into the male equivalent of Cassandra. I have a friend who has sleep paralysis. This type of d...

In today's society…. October 30, 2008. 521 prompt #8, or “l’epoque avant mes pieds”. Parts of a morning somewhere between november 2007 and march 2008, recalled mostly through the sense of hearing and the action of repetition]. The wind splatters against the living room window, wet with snow and angry; the door slams, barking against the frame, the lock grinds. Three short flights of stairs down to the parking lot, each step on them made treacherous by a pastrami-layering of ice and snow, snow and ice.

https://locke456.wordpress.com/2008/12/09/521-prompt-9-or-taking-completely-inarticulate-issue-with-thoreau
In today's society…. December 9, 2008. 521 prompt #9, or “taking completely inarticulate issue with Thoreau”. In your own words, what is Thoreau’s view on man’s relationship with nature? Can we see this philosophy in any of the Romantic poetry we’ve read in the class so far? What I mean to say is that Thoreau’s walk is indeed a walk of science; if it separates man from modern civilization, it is only geographically, not ideologically. Though I would agree that some of Thoreau’s sentiments regarding natur...

In today's society…. October 14, 2008. 521 prompt #7, “Stuff That Might Eventually Become A Thing”. I thought I posted this on Thursday of last week, but apparently not; I posted it on Blogger instead. Sorry!

In today's society…. October 3, 2008. 521 prompt #6, or “Ben’s afraid of the dark and is a giant ninny”. Are any of the works we’ve encountered so far sublime? Or, if you prefer, have you encountered the sublime in nature or in popular culture? Discuss your experience with the work or natural phenomenon, drawing on Burke (and Longinus, too, if you like) to help out. I have since grown to appreciate this feeling, this mini-terror (which, incidentally, I still feel an echo of everytime I’m in the woo...

In today's society…. December 21, 2008. 521 prompt #11, or “the healing power of nature/blank verse”. In response to this prompt…. John Ray Knott in his book.

In today's society…. December 21, 2008. 521 blog prompt #12, or “”further on down the road”. Brace yourselves for my potentially generic question. How has this class changed your conception of man’s relationship to nature? In more than a few significant ways, but I’ll try to narrow it down a bit:. Since my first backpacking trip nine or so years ago, I have harbored what I know now could best be described as a Romantic appreciation for nature. For their part, the Romantic poets and other writers we have ...

In today's society…. December 9, 2008. 521 prompt #10, or “out-depressing Carson”. The road we have long been traveling is deceptively easy, a smooth superhighway on which we progress with great speed, but at its end lies disaster, so says Carson (277). Would she have revised her sentiment, surviving into the 21st century? Why, or why not? This entry was tagged 521. 5 thoughts on “ 521 prompt #10, or “out-depressing Carson”.
