What are we to make of literary quotes in a film or other work of fiction? Does the context change their meaning or vice versa?
Thanks Patrick. Indeed on the one hand we have the genius of Donne, Eliot and so many other artists and on the other the terrible destruction we visit on one another and our environment. The Jekyll and Hyde of humanity . . .
I haven't seen the movie, but I love this article. I love John Donne's and Eliot's poetry and how expertly Aisling interprets them.
Mostly, I wonder how our world would be without us. The damage that we as 'intelligent' human beings cause.
Fascinating.
Thought provoking. Thank you!
