I know that's not what you meant -- that's why I had to mean it for you! If I always had to wait for someone else to talk dirty, I'd grow old and grey....well, I mean, more old and more grey....

So, Witchy, it's your turn: how do you get it on?

:p

Just don't go around claiming that in front of any academics. They'll pull you up short if you say anything pre-theorist follows their theory. because frankly they cant. The story cant be freudian because freud and ancient greece are a few thousand years away. I guaruntee you'd fail that essay! lol

I am a master of greek mythology. Most mythology but my favorites are English and Norse. But i have a soft spot for the classics as well. Romulus and Remus and the birth of rome, Prometheus and the birth of humanity. Do you know that according to Greek mythology, humans aren't the creation of gods but of Titans? (Big war between gods and titans)

Anyway my weekend was a bust. The supposedly romantic time that was meant to be spent with my girlfriend was instead ruined by a relapse into whatever it was I had last weekend. At least when i threw up I managed to get to the bathroom first. I have a vivid imagination and I can think of many many ways that it could have been worse. Still now I have to see the doctor tomorrow and get it sorted out.

I can hardly say I've studied mythology but I'm an avid reader of it and I've read a dictionary on it. I know just about all of the main myths plus most of the minor ones. Some really random ones I don't know about. (Generally, I prefer Greek to Roman though)

The thing is, a lot of classical mythology has what you might call 'freudian' elements to it. Freud might have studied people's minds and wrote about it, but the classicists certainly wrote stories which were symbolic of journeys in life. Like about how Jason and the Argonauts is about the change from boy to man and so on. Eros and Psyche is supposedly symbolic of sexual discovery and true love. It's easy to recognise themes that Freud identified in Greek mythology, that's what I mean by 'Freudian'. I've liked the Eros and Psyche story for several years now (since I was about 10 I think--when I first read it). Now I wonder whether I had subconsciously responded to the themes in the story.

Manga is huge on this kind of thing. It's such a zeitgeist phenomenon. Hana Yori Dango in particular is quite scary. It's a fun, cutesy little romance but it has these dark elements to it. Like how when you read it you might think 'damn those bullies' but at the same time root for them. It does stuff to your mind. The TV-adaptation got banned because it was too influential on teenage minds. Apparently there was a rise in teenage bullying--the show made it popular and cool to be a bully, apparently. Still, all teenage girls love this show and the manga. Whilst telling you that money won't buy you happiness, it suggests that money will give you endless power. It appeals to really basic human desires, I think. It's ridiculously mind-warping. Frankly, the characters can be quite obnoxious. Or rather, extremely. They break rules that simply cannot be broken by male love interests.

I went out with some girlfriends on Valentine's Day. Ate too much at a buffet and ended feeling sick, though I guess my sickness was more temporary, because I was fine the next day!

I'm with you on the preference for Greek myths and of course so much in Roman thought is derived from Greek origins anyway. I find it fascinating the extent to which the myths explore many of the issues which are the subject of study today - the recesses of the human mind could probably undergo another 2,000 years of analysis and still not be understood.

There are all sorts of myths and legends that respond to human beings on a very deep and emotional level, but calling it freudian is not a good idea. Its like saying that Isaac Newton had some very Hawking-esque ideas. You're applying the standards of a modern audience onto a different world. I mean I hated it when my lecturers picked me up on it but they did have a point. You can't say something is in the vein of.... if they appeared AFTER the original incident. For example, Tristram Shandy is an incredibly post-modern book but it was written long before the post modern era and so it cannot be considered to be post modern. It can have the elements that were later applied to the genre of post modernism but it cannot be called post modern. OK, rant over.

I prefer greek to roman legends, but then i prefer japanese to greek and norse and saxon to japanese. I just love the mythology about the great wolf fenrir swallowing the moon or the tales of the thirteen treasures of britain.

My valentines day kind of sucked and it kind of didn't. My girlfriend and I finally realised we were flogging a dead horse and gave up on our relationship. I'd rather not go through that again so we're never going to try it make it work again. But then, shit happens.
