Status Updates From Le metamorfosi

Read a part of Book 10, Cyparissus. Mid

Read another section, this time from Book 4, Pyramus & Thisbe. Really liked this one. Almost identical to the story of Romeo & Juliet. I assume al of lecture/class will talk about that fact & compare it to Song of Songs. On page 139.

this might be my favorite so far (tied with Odyssey)

Read another small section, this time from Book 14. At least this time the professors gave us a whole section to read, the Wanderings of Aeneas Resumed, to read instead of some random-ass lines. The Apetown section caught me off guard a bit and made me chuckle. Can't wait to come back to actually read this and give it proper justice once I finish the Plato book. I also need to read the Aeneid soon too.

Reading guide says to read lines 678-687 of Book 13. We are the honours programme. Why the fuck are we babying ourselves by only reading such small segments of these texts. There are times this class is downright insulting in the way it assumes we are more simian that we actually are. Anyways, this is the part about the daughters of Orion killing themselves to save Thebes. On page 531.

Again, fuck this reading list. It says read lines 933-942 of Book 15, which I assume means the epilogue of the book. Call for infamy & kleos. On page 636.
