For reasons I can't explain right now, I need you guys to help me deconstruct what constitutes excelent and masterfull writing.
So far I got the following:
>Use of tropes from previous writers, have an important cultural baggage
>Use of references, citations to previous works
>Correct use of a plot structure
>Figures of speech
>Carefull use and practice of poetrhy rules and metric (be a poet)
>Carefull though of use of words, mainly repetition of sounds
>Iambic pentameter
>Smart use of repetition and variance
>Eloquence (that is the ability to talk about a topic in eloquent ways, mainly artistically, using figures of speech and intelligent mental pictures)
So far those are the elements of good writing I've been able to think about.
I would love a proper and smart discussion over this topic, since I'm tired of hearing that good writing can't be analized.
traditionally maybe. but in our time: make it fun. make it easy, make it smart, make it ironic.

Anon I consider myself a traditionalist.

>caring for the opinions of liberals who hate shakespeare
lmao philistine.
>>9214669
traditionalism is cool but you have to "make" it cool for an audience

Audiences only care about the plot, that's why I put correct use of a plot structure.
Plot = impress the philistine.
Prose = impress the snobs.
