The Quiz: Unfolded II.....after my diner.

Plato's thoughts on writing from Yates, pg. 38: writing--you have invented an elixir not of memory but of reminding, the appearance of wisom, but not true wisdom. Makes minds weak and dependent.

Yates-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Simonedes: memory theatre, the wedding story (everyone dies and he remembers their name by where they were sitting.

Rhetoric: we use language for persuasion

Ethics: scholastics, reminds us of heaven and hell.

Cosmos: practical, engages us with the universe.

St. Augutine: trained in memory. stores images in a large and boundless chamber. The Cave holds images. memory, understanding, and will.

Class Questions---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Seven liberal arts: GGRAMAD. Gramar, Geometry, Rhetoric, Arithmatic, Music, Astronomy, and Dialect

Neoplatonism: mystisism

John's B-day: Feb 20

Anamnesis: Recollectioin

When was Brunno burnt at stake: 1600, feb 17

Parataxis: simple, short, fragmentated sentences. "I came. I saw. I Conquered."

Bicameralism: right hemisphere spoke uncontrollably attributed to the gods and the left processed into speech.

Esoteric: Secret, private, not for the masses

Imagination: one hour photo. memory through imagination.

Shahar Azad: 1001 nights, stalls king. Open ended stories. Beowulf was told in three nights.

Artifical v.s Natural Memory: artifical is learned and natural you are born with.

Collective v.s Personal Unconscious: The personal unconscious includes anything which is not presently conscious, but can be. The personal unconscious is made up essentially of contents which have at one time been conscious but have disappeared from consciousness through having been forgotten or repressed. The collective unconscious is also known as "a reservoir of the experiences of our species."

Phaedrus: Plato used to denouce writing, should be inside your mind.

Sexton giving blood or Green Blood: St. Patrick's day or march 17

Kevin's three interest: memory, imagination, and soul

Epiphets: brave solider, sturdy oak, beautiful princess. Kate of beautiful eyes.
