He was the best friend of modernism, without him the movement wouldn't have been as good/successful as it was. He wasn't the best writer though. Good, but not the best.

How many of you fagots actually read the Greeks?

You fell for the meme, op.

On book 3 of the Republic, been really enjoying it so far....

Haven't gone into reading a lot of history or poetry, etc. (Childhood was filled with self interest for Greece so I read a lot of shit when I was younger and have a general idea of its history)

have Odyssey and Iliad on the way... (reading order a bit fucked I know, but again, I have a gist of what happens in both stories..)

Why aren't you following the flowchart?

ok

>>8216707
Better than being addicted to heroin I guess.

>>8216707
Could be worse, lad.

Sometimes it can get a bit overwhelming though, I suggest making time for doing nothing and maybe some meditation.

Otherwise it's like perpetually eating without ever taking a shit.

Did your plan to disseminate it via pizza deliverymen not work?

Are you insane? Of course it will be removed

>>8215983
I have dismissed it as a potential option.

>>8215995
But why? There are articles on Finnish cheese-making methods and contemporary Cypriot parlance. Why wouldn't they allow me to share my story with the world?

Season 6 had basically NOTHING happen. The show did a really good job of feeding the normie masses filler and making it seem substantial, but they didn't give us anything new really and discounting developments which are fundamentally at odds with the plot present in the book.

Nice try faggot, I can't wait to read WoW and am so glad I didn't get spoilered by HBO's shitshow.

>>8211685

he's lazy as fuck and his central themes havent changed much: war is horrible and the old times were pretty fucked up

that being said I can't stand emilia clarke's acting , so I haven't watched GOT since mid season 4, and probabbly wont catch up on GOT until the novels come out

unless he dies before ADOS comes out desu

If you could reveal your thoughts and reasoning behind the choices, as this is a discussion board, that would be preferable.

At any rate, the choice of picture is admirable. Sun-bronzed thighs, calves and feet are divine.

My favorite poet is either Keats or Yeats.

I mean he's right. Just because it's not recorded and canonized doesn't make it wrong.

Just read it.

Start with the Greeks.

Op enjoy this unadulterated pleasure now. There is no regaining it.

>>8223493
this, poetry is meant to convey a feeling not be studied and hacked apart
