Feminist Mythology?
Today in COMM3331 {Modern Rhetorical Criticism} we discussed Apocalypticism; and it is no wonder I feel better today than I have in weeks. For what feels like merely the second time this semester, engaging was easy and the comments of my peers not nauseating. Last semester I so enjoyed Innes's lecture because every day was interesting and humorous and above all validating. This exciting and exotic sensation springs not from the environment and method exclusively, but most importantly, from the provided text. Reading the material assigned last night I saw many arguments (which I should admit I hold fundamentally dear to my person) I had made and facilitated numerous times, cohesively arranged and documented. All of this is beside the point... though it is an extraordinarily shiny experience.
After spending our lecture going over varies aspects of Apocalypticism I found myself with a number of apples bobbing with ultra-buoyancy in my brain.
1. How is it not completely and unavoidably obvious to individuals and groups the controlling nature of & universally totalitarian consequences of Apocalypticism?
2. Why is it that there has never been a collective female mythology? It is beyond common for oppressed groups to come together creating a mythology of hope and/or placation. Women do not seem to have ever done this, especially in a collective or symbolic manner. Is this further evidence of how the social architecture has framed, defined, endangered, and confined us? Or could it be that we are biologically wired create different cognitive solutions than men? The violence and battle within the Bible is written by men to appeal to men, what would this Rapture look like if designed by a women? Would it exist at all?
3. How far do the boundaries of Dreamworlds travel? Due to my eternal naïveté I had not considered specific implications of It ...and/or obviously all the possibilities its corruption entails.
4. My 6 year-old niece is unquestionably intellectually superior to the majority of Americans.
That is all for now.
