ProduktrezensionenBuilding Great Sentences : Exploring the Writer's Craft (2008, DVD)

I have no idea if this is a good DVD set or not

I never watched this one. I believed that I learned more for the promotional ad than from the actual DVD, which is in fact certain because I never watched any of the DVDs, not even the introductions. I like most about it the historical usages and examples provided by the brilliant professor. What I dislike about it is that it reveals so much of the truth that it makes me doubt my own ability to come to the truth on my own, such that I would only want to learn it if I had no interest in writing sentences as part of my nature in the cosmos/world/spacetemporality. However, I am glad for the promotional ad and having watched it because it has given (gave and continues to give) me pleasure to know that there is a scientific basis for the construction of sentences, but I would not want to go beyond this basic knowledge for reasons pertaining to my "soul" ("soul" as defined by the 1960's-1940's triumphant Catholic American culture TOS Star Trek, which "soul 'soul'" (one might say soul's soul, or soul of the soul [{but not soul of souls, which would be a "soul 'soul "soul"'"} I herebefore referred to the truer sense of the word soul which any usage of the term soul indicates if only briefly and in vaporous form] loves my nature (reads [reads in Latin, id est or in English i.e., namely, to wit, et hoc genus omne], temporal essence) so much it is as if my nature is part of my soul although strictly speaking it is not), though my soul (reads, permanent [reads in this here place, eternal] essence) is Catholic because it is utilitarian (my guardian angel is a free-market amoralist or as they say, an angel almost of Limbo [which I hope it is still theologically correct to believe in]) with the very weakest of (but still a positive one) believes in the goodness of the divine plan and cosmology. After all, my calling is to be the Kurt Goedel of scholastic philosophers and not to be a mythologist or a writer and so I do not need to know how to write.Vollständige Rezension lesen...

How great sentences are written

I like Brooks Landon. How he puts first his left hand in his pocket, removes it, and then places his right hand in the other pocket. I appreciate his love for the rhetorician Francis Christianson. He claims that good writing is not a function of the length of sentences and then proceeds to run sentences beyond an average paragraph in length. He reads interesting sentences from Hemmingway, Steinbeck, and many others. You will be enriched and enamored by this course and you will go away with a better understanding of how to write great literature.
