I've been looking at the text in course books again.
I see where why Dickens had too use simple comedic caricature in his works...plain and simple and the message gets through but as Simon Callow shows n his performance of Dickens performed is best..well it is for me anyway.
I think the same goes for 'The Odyssey' and 'the Illiad'...such size boks and the meaning is lost...I still prefer poetry like this to be performed..I heard some of it performed originally and it sounded ..felt right to me..performed with passion..like sean nos or lament...
Afternoon Y'all.
Hope all are well...and studies going well.
