Joseph Brodsky said that poetry is "the most concise, the most condensed way of conveying the human experience." While there is nothing to doubt in his statement, it is equally important to note a poem's immortality. While all works of literature are never truly finished, it is most visible in poetry. In Dwiputri Pertiwi's final part of her series on literary forms, she talks about the nature of a poem.
Children's books often make readers of all ages smile, even if the story does not end happily. The colourful illustrations and heart-warming tales typically found in these books, however, can make older readers forget that they, too, are works of literature. Is it possible for us to regain our literary appreciation towards stories that used to make us wonder when we were children?
Reading translated works sometimes makes us wonder if we are not being lied to, or in any way cheated by the translator. In this situation, the only plausible thing to do would be to simply trust the professionals who give readers more books and essays to choose from. On another note, what should readers look for in translations?
Essays are meant to be a reflection of an author's personal point of view. But how much self-thought can an essayist pour without becoming self-indulgent? Our literary enthusiast Dwiputri Pertiwi invites us to understand the constitution of a good essay.
Lost time is an excuse anyone makes to not delve into great work of literature. As Dwiputri Pertiwi explains "Time is something that cannot be recovered," so instead she invites all of you to shift your daily attention from lost time to see the possibilities of what focusing on short stories can do for you.
We read for the purpose of intellectual growth and education. Often, we simply read to keep us inspired from life's mundane routine. Yet, the choices to read may vary for each individual. In this second series, Dwiputri Pertiwi takes us to examine the stimulating prospect of reading fiction.
