Why do many great writers fall into the category of being a chud again?
Define "chud".
>>24119785I really hate to start zoomer terms.
>>24119785Reading Julius Caesar right now and it's amazing how Shakespeare holds humanity in the palm of his hand.Within a handful of lines we understand the soul of his Caesar. Very distinct from something like Moby Dick, where Ishmael spends 100 pages at church or contemplating a figurine or whatever to tell him what boat to get on or what order to puy his socks on. As if that decision justifies the shovel of boring inane tripe. Melville cannot write.
>>24119840Holy filtered
>>24119785Because Chuds understand things better.
Most writers that are now considered "chuds" were progressive and forward thinking in their time.
>>24119902Shakespeare was a Chud for his time too. So was Dostoevsky, who mocked the liberals of his time more than once (both in Demons and Crime of Punishment, he did so very explicitly).
>>24119905Dostoevsky sucks though.
>>24119840Aren't you the guy who got called out for not actually having read Moby-Dick in the Melville thread?
>>24119905>Shakespeare was a Chud for his time tooWe don't know anything about Shakespeares personal opinions
>>24119840>Sooth. Caesar.>Caes. Ha? Who calles?I always loved how he wrote that and the way it introduced Caesar
