Hello cherry, Welcome to the forum!
Hi to you all!
Instead of just announcing that I am new, (which will be obvious by the fact that this is my first post), I thought I would make a quick comment about the site. It’s really great to see a really broad spectrum of comments. It appears that while a lot of posters are quite the “literature experts” there’s also room for those of us who are perhaps a bit more timid. Nice to see some varied dialogues happening!

Well I'll keep it short but sweet for now and look forward to getting to know you all better - this seems like an interesting community to be part of ^^ Later all! :banana:

Now then..My intro dho..Im Nisha ..Iz my real name & Im frm Maldives..befor you ask itz a small itzy bitzy country made a entirely of lil islands..We got arnd 11990 or sumthn islands... :rolleyes: O and itz in the Indian ocean.. :nod:
umm...Im seventeen years ols..Bday is 3 Aug & am proudly a leo.. ;)
I am doin my A levels in my country at the one & only higher educational institute v haf whivh is name CHSE(don bother with the long form)
I started readin Shakespear wen I was 11 years old..Now this might not be a big accomplishment but iin my no kid tht age shows any interest in readin any thn in english.Due to my interest in readin..(lol..I started out readin archie comics btw) my parents decided tht I shud tak lit wen I went to grd 8 along wit sci subjcts..I wasnt sure personally..but now Im am forever indebted them(sigh.They keep on remindin me)
My interest in Lit grw the three years tht I did Olevel lit & by the time I had finished my O level ..I was a nut!!
in fact I was soo passionate abt the subjct tht I demanded specail attention frm my current school..Makin em giv me specail timetables and stuff..I actually gav up Sci and transfered to buss( my parents practically disowned me) cos aperently the subjct wasnt availbe to sci students(honestly our education system here is corrupt)
For the record the number of lit students in my class amounts to a healthy..........

Hello it's nice to be here. I'm a passionate reader and this looks like a perfect place for me. I'm from Croatia and I don't have any special type of literature that I prefer. It only has to be a good book.
Welcome, crven, Nisha, lakul, usha, Diop. Don't be afraid to get into discussions. Jump right in. I hope you enjoy it. I do.
lakul, Welcome to the forum!
Nisha, Hi Nisha, Welcome to the forum. Nice Introduction but please, if you write full words, it will be more easier to read. Thanks.
Creven, Welcome and keep on posting. Every book that gives us pleasure, it is good. Y
Sorry Pensive.Im an msn fanatic.
Can anyone tell me why there is a reference to Hyperion & a satyr in Hamlet?
(act 1:scene 2) .....Hyperion to a Satyr, so loving to my mother .....?!
thnkz.
ps:That was hard on me pensive.Im soo used to shortenin:P
Hi Nisha, It is alright. No need to be sorry. I am sorry that I can't help as I have watched "Hamlet" movie only and I have forgotten parts of it.
You can start a topic in "Discussion On Specific Authors And Books" There you will get more response - I think.
Thanks
Just thought I'd drop a line to say a huge cheery HELLO to one and all. :banana:
Bit about me!
I'm 28 and currently in my second year of a BSc Equine Science degree. Have had to dissect some pretty gruesome things such as eyes, lungs, intestines, legs and an unborn feotus (horse of course)!! It is so interesting, thank god I have a cast iron stomach!
Live in Hereford, UK with my four favourite things, my Dad, brother, my horse Joey and my crazy dog Delta!
Really into my books and writing. Bit of a fantasy fanatic myself! :D Love Martha Wells and Terry Pratchett.
Looking forward to chatting with you all in the future.

Oh and to anyone who ever was not formally welcomed by someone,
it was not done on purpose. we are all in other worlds too and can be forgetful.
welcome one and all and know that your thoughts and feelings are precious and will be respected and probably admired on the lit forum. :D
so know in advance this is what I personally think of all of you, the others will have to do bananas themselves! :banana: :lol: :banana:
Hi there
I'm from Bordeaux and try to share my love for english literature, so please correct me when I make mistakes...
In my place the sun has disapeared so in that sad day I'm trying to enjoy myself, but the only thing I've found to do is to read some Edgar Allan Poe poetries... Factualy I like it, but I'd rather read something more hopeful.. any idea?
Hi Jane, Welcome to the forum. Ok, if you mean english spellings and gramatical mistakes in your post, then I will like to correct your little mistakes. (not that I am very good in English)
You have written "that sad day"
It should be "the sad day"
It should be Edgar Allan Poe's poems not "poetries"
I will advice you to read something funny that will cheer you up.
Hello Jane! Welcome :D i love thatn name Jane... Great name :D
Any how Once again welcome.. well how about reading the Three Musketers.. you prpbably understand the Franch name much better then me :D
Well hope to see ya more often and have a great day :wave:
Willow :D
Welcome Crazy Jane. I love that name too. Do you know that William Butler Yeats has a bunch of poems with a character named Crazy Jane? Perhaps you do and took the name from him. Here's a cool Crazy Jane poem by Yeats to welcome you to the forum:Quote:

Not in some foul sty.'
'Fair and foul are near of kin,
And fair needs foul,' I cried.
'My friends are gone, but that's a truth
Nor grave nor bed denied,
Learned in bodily lowliness
And in the heart's pride.
'A woman can be proud and stiff
When on love intent;
But Love has pitched his mansion in
The place of excrement;
For nothing can be sole or whole
That has not been rent.'
