my true opinion of Bowers

[truepenny]

So I'm playing around with the insanity LJ-poem generator, trying to smack something into shape for elisem's meme, and along the way, it spits out this:

Which since I was reading Bowers this morning, is incredibly apt.

*laugh* Okay, okay, I believe you.

-- No nifty definitions of common tropes, figures, characterizations, and dramatic structures in revenge tragedies, then? That's really what I was looking for. Instead of just reading a ton of them and figuring it all out.

Nothing beyond the blindingly obvious. He spends a great deal of time showing how the plots of later revenge tragedies do or do not match up with The Spanish Tragedy and his reconstruction of the Ur-Hamlet. Also, his smug twentieth-century morality looks very peculiar when applied to revenge tragedy.

But, you know, if you want tropes, figures, characterizations, and dramatic structures of revenge tragedy, I could do you a post. Because I have read a ton of them.

Hah!

I have a program, called MacTravesty, that does essentially that trick except offline and with larger documents. (It's something like a tool for decryption? But I've written some very fun poetry with its help.) Once I plugged into it a (since-abandoned) story I was writing in the voice of a nine-year-old girl. It caught on something I'd said about her fear of drowning in the swimming pool, and gave me

I was going to die die die die die die die die [etc]

until the word limit was reached. That one kind of disturbed my mother when she found it lying around the computer.
