Prosody
All poets use rhythm and all readers of poetry hear rhythm, whether or not they are conscious of doing so, but prosody, the description and analysis of poetic rhythms, can be as complicated as musical notation, and different languages require different sorts of prosody. In the classical languages prosody was quantitative, based on vowel length or quantity. In Anglo-Saxon (or Old English) prosody was qualitative, based on patterns of stress or accent (with other complex rules concerning alliteration, p. 202). In Slavic languages, like Russian, words can be very long, because such synthetic languages build a lot of meaning into one word by adding prefixes and inflecting endings, but there…

Cadmium yellow
A painted bird,Whose feathers remain still.Such was the way my life.Stuck on impossible currency.Upiros puke for the blind,Merry people of my land.Stalking those, they bled for cash.Again back to times of cuffs and gags.Yet, the cuffs are good to parch streets And gags keep peace of mind.No matter how harsh the broken rights.Soon will the ball bounce,Among the three of North.Beautiful like folk to celebrate the stain!For one founder of the Petrol law,Has been reduced to marsh.And we, as sensible chaps,Care of ourselves the main concern through all.

Supersticiones
La creencia en las hadas, derivada en costumbres no verbalizadas, ha sobrevivido igualmente. Los ancestros que colgaban herraduras sobre sus puertas para protegerse de las hadas, es una práctica para la buena suerte que es bastante común. Encapsulamos los tréboles de cuatro hojas y los ponemos en cadenas como amuletos para la buena suerte, olvidando que antiguamente, se usaban para ver a través de las ilusiones de las hadas. Fairy Lore. A Handbook. D. L Ashliman. Greenwood Folklore Handbooks Las historias sobreviven. Lo único que tienen que hacer es cambiar. Reciclarse tanto como sea possible de Fuentes desconocidas.. . Solo, por favor,no hagan Batmans aztecas. La realidad es mucho, mucho…

De discursos y poemas
Sus autores se han propuesto cantar las hazañas de unos héroes y no de celebrar la gloria de determinados reinos o colectividades. Además, si por una parte es probable que algunas de las aventuras relatadas tengan realmente una base histórica, por otra parte no es menos seguro que sus autores no vacilaban en utilizar temas puramente imaginarios; exageraban, por ejemplo, las virtudes del héroe, narraban sueños proféticos y hacían intervenir a los dioses en sus narraciones. Desde el punto de vista del estilo, los poemas épicos en cuestión se caracterizaban por un empleo abusivo de epítetos convencionales, de prolijas repeticiones, de fórmulas repetitivas y de descripciones a menudo ociosas, sin…

The magic kingdom of Storytelling
As far as we know, only Sapiens can talk about entire kinds of entities that they have never seen, touched or smelled. Legends, myths, gods and religions appeared for the first time with the Cognitive Revolution. Many animals and human species could previously say, ‘Careful! A lion!’ Thanks to the Cognitive Revolution, Homo sapiens acquired the ability to say, ‘The lion is the guardian spirit of our tribe.’ This ability to speak about fictions is the most unique feature of Sapiens language. Sapiens. Nuval Yoah Harari Someone will say: But God exists!And then, we might shut our traps to survive.Perhaps, only because the only time I discuss fiction is when…
