The Loss of The Creature

September 13, 2006 chasjefferson

  1. All of Percy’s examples tend to lead to the same idea of living a cliche. Each of his ideas are different in that they give a different twist on this idea.? This ultimately makes his argument stronger for his main idea. Additionally it encompasses a larger spectrum of ideas to relate the main concept to life.
  2. The main loss that Percy describes is the fact that people never take anything for what they are anymore.? They think about how the place they see now relates to the postcard they got last year.? If they scene meets that criteria they immediately take a picture to show to their friends and have they opportunity to remember being there years later.? For this reason no one is ever truly in the moment living a truly unique experience that they can call their own.

    I like how you were short and quick to the point… unlike Percy.
