Hi, I've posted here a few times and have enjoyed looking through these forums. It's nice having such a variety of different people talking about different types of literature. Just thought I'd introduce myself here and say howdy :). I'm currently in a graduate program in lit. so I do a lot of reading. I'm especially fond of Renaissance poetry (hence "Petrarch"), but I also like the Romantics (Keats is one of my faves), and of course I surface into the twenty-first century every once in awhile when I don't have too much research to do :). Anyway, looking forward to meeting you all. :wave:
Welcome topher and Petrach. Have a nice time here.
Welcome Petrarch. As grad student I'm sure your time is limited, but I hope you stick around. I've enjoyed our discussions in the Poem of the Week forum. Thanks for letting me know a little about you. I've wondered about you and ktd. One question, just so I can relate a little better to who I'm talking to, are you male or female? I can't quite tell. If you wish, you can read about my background in my intro which is one of the earlier posts (it's post #3 on the first page) on this thread.
actually Nisha, yes me and Naruto havbe been friends for many centuries now. back in the day when we were able to roam around in public view we used to do many tricks and spells togather. actually i have no idea what on earth i am speaking about i just like to mess around alot and to act like an idiot. no nisha i do not know of this naruto character. sorryQuote:

:banana: uhuhuhuhu!
Hello Fountain, It is very nice to see you. Nice interests, you have got there.
You have mentioned "Hermann Hesse" three times if I have calculated right. *smiles*
Welcome aboard.Quote:
Hello Im Anthony, a literature teacher in Karachi, Pakistan. We re studying Shakespeares Macbeth and Twelfth Night,Dickens Great Expectations, an assortment of poems and some short stories.
Im happy to find an active literature group. Our British Council library closed down and I miss the link with literature.
If you don't mind my asking, which short stories are you discussing in your class? (College, I presume?)
Thanks for the welcome Pensive and Virgil.
Virgil--since you're curious, I'm a woman (technically not Petrarch, but his "love"). I read your intro. and was interested to find out a little about you too. I think it's admirable that you went back to get your masters in a subject you love. I just completed the MA last year (now working towards the infamous PhD :eek: ), and it took all the time and energy my little brain could muster so I know it would take some real dedication to do that while working full time in an unrelated field :nod:. Well, gotta go see to my bird who's chirping loudly for attention. Ciao for now.
Well Hello one and all.
I love learning, possibly why I joined this site. I love reading and spending time with my friends. I play volley ball and surf. I amazingly enough watch virtually no TV, I think that time is made up on the computer. I do enjoy movies, especialy old ones and musicles. I enjoy the sciences and history. I especially love singing and music. Well that is me in a nut shell.
You don't have to answer but on that piece of info, I would infer that your real name is Laura.Quote:

Virgil-- Hai ragione! Il mio nome e lo stesso. :) I was wondering when someone would guess. Conosci bene la poesia di Petrarca?
Not really, Petrarch, but I am aware of his platonic love. I'm sorry I can't write in Italian, but I can read some; limited vocabulary, though.Quote:
