Suddenly we came to the general statements.
But I never heard any noise or sound of builders.
Imperceptibly they shut me from the outside world.
Io non so ben ridir com'i' v'entrai:
tant'era pien di sonno a quel punto
che la verace via abbandonai.
(Inf. I.10-)
So these are words you came to use:
'modern poetry', 'vital', 'doesn't this?', 'according to is ...
right?', 'somewhere there', 'affirm the Law'.
Quoth a young Sadducee:
"Reader of many rolls,
Is it so certain we
Have, as they tell us, souls?"
There's no cheating with words, which is clearly shown by my previous
day's message, being written in some darkness abounding the mind. If
it in some way was one of the causes of these generalizations, I give
apologizes.
Speaking about profitable ways of talking about poetry: is writing
'comments' not practised anywhere? The way they commented Dante or
anyone deserving interest. Not to make some conclusion, suitable for
'report' or 'paper', but just to understand exact meaning of all the
words in a given verse. Not using any 'theory' and not going deep in
any 'private experience'.
