The title says it all. It's an dialogue inspired by Othello (the play by Shakespeare) and a synthesis paper. Unfortunately, it's also a rough draft, but I'm working on that. And lastly, it's my first literary-work-for-school publication on this site.
Because it's a synthesis paper, it draws upon multiple sources. Therefore, it's a spoiler if you've read any one of those books. Spoiler alerts for the following: Lord of the Flies by William Golding, Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn, and Othello. If you haven't read them, they're highly recommended thought-provoking novels!
To get a good sense of it, the thesis (yes, a dialogue can convey a meaning, too!) goes as follows:
When a mindless person falls prey to haste, it acts as a magnifying vessel to other destructive forces such as jealousy; however, when that selfsame haste be applied to a person who carefully accounts for their own actions and thoughts, then it provides a boosterish rush towards accomplishment.
Right now, it's a bit wordy and not as well-developed in thought as I would like it to be, but it's a start. Now it's time to start freaking about about midterms (this week) again!
Again, I don't know if this blog will ever be recognized or useful, but for now it's simply a way for myself to reference my own thoughts. Just for now.
