World Literature!

This is the final blog about taking the World Literature course. I found some of the pieces very interesting and I feel more cultured from all the stories we read. I enjoyed reading about ancient literature because I had very little knowledge of pieces like that, minus the Bible. It taught me about what people at that time thought about. Learning about Chinese stories brought a whole new aspect of the things that matter to that culture and it was quite interesting to hear. Now, I didn't really enjoy ancient Roman and Greek literature because they had gross and depressing concepts that were not enjoyable, but again still interesting to hear. Dante's Inferno was pretty cool but I kind of wish we learned about the other two parts to the book series to get the whole story. And finally, Hamlet was very depressing and frustrating because the whole time I just wanted to tell Hamlet what he should do to make things okay with little problems. Overall, this course taught me much about the different types of people and what people ponder on, whether it be the same or different. I feel like a more cultured human after taking this class. Hoped you liked my blog!
