I'm a little concerned about the number of videos we've got... it may make loading an absolute bugger for people. Considering making this main page into more of a table of contents, with links to everything rather than the actual content itself. What do you think?

+ | What are some of the unifying aspects of the multimedia we've gathered so far? What ties together the readings of the poem, the derivative works, the visualizations? | ||
+ | * The focus on emotional impact rather than objective interpretation | ||
+ | ** Might bring in Manjola Nasi's article on the "objective correlative" in the Waste Land | ||
+ | * This is really interesting in light of Eliot's theory of the "objective correlative," which suggests that there is a verbal formula for any given emotion—that a subjective emotion can be produced by objective means. | ||
+ | * Are we dealing with objective formulae for the emotional impact of the poem, only with different mediums, or is The Waste Land really only imitated in an emotional manner? Does the primally emotional nature of its derivatives indicate a success in its ability to evoke emotion? Can we tell at all whether we are carrying away the "right" or "intended" emotions of the poem? | ||
+ | * Should the derivative works be viewed as further layers on a palimpsest or as something new? How profitable is the palimpsest approach? | ||
