#1 Evil on Earth: Analysing Literature

Someone said this recently on YWS, and I agree. Completely.

Literature isn’t meant to be analysed! When Shakespeare wrote The Tempest he didn’t think,“Ya know, I think another usage of an extended metaphor to broaden how good I am before the 12 syllable iambic pentameter would be great.”

OK!

Well, perhaps I just need a reason to procrastinate. I don’t know. But it’s just what I hate in school; is it just to fill the curriculum, or what? If Shakespeare truly did that, just to piss off the descendants in 500 years, then guess what?

I believed in you, and you let me down!

I should really get back to my English coursework. Oh, by the way, not that anyone cares but I got an A* in my ICT GCSE (how?)!
