Wow, I must say that I really liked the snarkiness this week. We have talked a lot about how some of these authors have been difficult to relate to, but is it bad that I really relate to Erasthmus? Perhaps I shouldn't have gotten quite so much glee from reading his works as I did... Anyhow, I thought he used the concepts of satire impeccably well. And yeah, I wholeheartedly agree with Brannen that Magdalia should be the latest disney princess...
Sliced bread was a great invention, but sandwiches are awesome. Just like the use of snark in this writing. And maybe I shouldn't blog when I've had this much caffeine...
chats on BRANNEN!
This is the best post I have ever read in my life. I'm pretty sure I looked like a crazy person hysterically laughing at this work while sitting in Java. Oh well, caffeine makes everything better!
ReplyDeleteI love you so much Abbey Griffin. Yes, the snarkiness was sublime. I want more satire! And even in the midst of all that great satire, Erasmus was able to convey so much truth!
ReplyDeleteI agree, all the other works are so deep theologically then when this comedic work came across we ended up taking a lot more from it.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of sandwiches, my favorite is the Italian.
