At first I had no clear idea of what this course would offer me and what we were expected to do. But the minute we were handed the reading materials I was secretly elated. First of all I had always this affinity towards literature and the materials given were interesting that I could not stop myself from reading it when I was intending to only have a glimpse through. We were given literature materials that is mythological in nature and also those that is bibliographical/ biographical. I have to say that even though reading myths and legend exciting but it might also be confusing due to its classical language structure and choice of words. It felt like invading somebody's privacy reading the diaries entries, but it is also interesting pieces of writing that allows us to look at world through their perspectives. This is the second week of lecture... we have only been working on Pyramus and Thisbe. There were a lot of terms and people and places that were unknown to us. I did some research online to help me in understanding the story.
