another day another book tainted by the presence of a screen adaptation and most of all: its male lead 🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬🚬
#in the anna karenina tag for the first time. like i could dislike vronsky MORE#PICK THE RIGHT DUDE AT LEAST!!!! (levin my beloved <3)#jo in the tardis*#and man i am not that into classifying literature or epochs and all that jazz but THIS IS REALISM#the point is literally... it's not about ONE dude it's about every dude that's like this#it's the big scientific experiment epoch#and yeah sure karenina doesn't fall under critical balzac realism but it's still the same values#note: about epochs i just feel like we should let the artwork breathe every once in a while#of course the historical sphere matters but it shouldn't be the foundation of analysis#not ALL of it stems from that yk. i guess it's just the usual human preoccupation with time#as something that's into folders and cages and boxes. NO time has restraining orders for those#it's great in theory and that's why i don't restrain from using the terms but i think the effect is counterproductive...#when you say this belongs to renaissance! young people especially read it as a barrier between worlds#you should start with: doesn't this sound familiar? and then introduce the specifics#let me fall in love first i'll want to know everything#this is Not what this post was about
