Julle het mos so rukkie gelede oor digters en dinge gesels?
Ek wou nog iets daaroor gesê het. Vandag sien ek hierdie verwysing in
een van die groepe waar ek soms lees, en dog julle sal dit dalk ook
interessant vind?

"The oldest and most popular subject of criticism is apparently the
role of poetry and the place of the poet in society. The arguments of
Plato and Aristotle are not early but late. Long before their day, on
Egyptian papyrus and Babylonian clay tablet and in the Prophetic Books
of the Bible, the discussion was going on. As most of you may know,
Plato had a very low opinion of poets. Isaiah had a very exalted one.
From those days to the present the debate has continued."
Ars longa, vita brevis, of so iets eh?
;-)

Dankie Katryn, dit is interessant. Ek was veral bly dat Wordsworth nerens
genoem word nie :-))

Ja, kuns bly maar gevaarlik, soos Plato geweet het :-)

Dank je Katryn! 't Is te groot om nu meteen helemaal te lezen (Engels blijft
voor mij een buitenlandse taal en ik moet nog weleens wat opzoeken), maar
het begin is alvast interessant! Uitgemergelde dichters, dat is pas je ware!
Zo onstaat de echte Kunst.
