It reminds me to re-activate a certain "Relations" code, because even if unintended, this intertextuality exists in at least one perspective. Ah, I need to find Tsukihime again <3 Speaking of writing, I recall the Writer's Almanac from FRIDAY, 07 MARCH, 2008 [<a href="http://writersalmanac.publicradio.org/programs/2008/03/03/" rel="nofollow">here</a>]. There is a couple paragraphs about Robert Frost, interesting, and related to writing. -He said, "It was as if I'd had a hallucination." ^^ And this post appears with many comments ^^ Micheal, that relation you’ve depicted is wicked cool, and quite interesting to ponder.

The similarity between the passage you quote and the event from the Nasu-verse which you describe (I've never read either <em>Tripmaster Monkey</em> or <em>Tsuhikime</em> - does one read a visual novel?) is indeed striking. Whether or not <em>Tsuhikime</em>'s author has read <em>TM</em>, it certainly functions as an allusion for you. I've known 'reverse intertextuality', when there definitely couldn't have been an intentional reference on the author's part, become quite amusing. As I think I've said to you before, a major problem with postmodern writing for me is that too often it fails to be fun. Epic comments thread, &c.

But I spend most of my free time either reading or watching anime. And whenever I have a free elective I get a literature subject. At the very least, I want to get a minor in it. :) Postmodernism is a reaction against modernism, yes. I wouldn't know about postmodern<em>ity</em>, because scholars say that's a totally different thing. I hate the forceful obfuscation of meaning, though. There is a reason why novels like <em>Gravity's Rainbow</em> and <em>Infinite Jest</em> are so polarizing. A lot force themselves to like the novels, and a lot just hate the pretension. Postmodernism no longer has the beauty of modernist literature, because it totally avoids being given meaning to. It's a bitch. Frankly, I'd take Joyce any day over these pretentious bastards. Or at the very least, the supposed 'postmodernism' of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. That man writes very, very well. Lelangir:

I was quite interested in gerontology a while ago, but then got completely turned off to science after a horrid trip through BIO101. And then this can seemingly relate to Jeff Lawson's entry about Aria and youth and stuff. Hm. And I like the intertextuality of media and mediums. Music is basically one giant grab bag, if that's what you mean by intertextuality, a borrowing and influencing of things. Ah but now I've figured something meaningful to type! So I think that an artwork that challenges the metaphysics present between it and the viewer is always thought-provoking. I was commenting about this on iniksbane's Kaiba entry. So while postmodernity may "be about nothing" or may present a bunch of disconnected events, this method of presentation satires the methods of communication we are so comfortable with. Isn't postmodernity just a break away from modernity? Not related to this post at all, but I thought I heard you say you were a biology major?
