Culture as a bulwark against obscurantism

In a previous article, I mentioned a survey by the National Book Center concerning reading in 2025, which complements the information and knowledge that I learned during this conference organized by occitanie culture (occitanie livre). During the web conference on illiteracy and illiteracy that I attended, I asked myself several questions about the socio-economic consequences, dropping out of school seems to me to be one of them. The interventions were very interesting. To find out more here are two links, one to the official website of national book center and the other to occitanie culture.

Creation of characters : the behavior

When creating characters, whether for a novel or a play, two notions are important: observation and empathy. It is possible to imagine the physique and character traits beforehand, however, observing reality allows you to create very realistic fictional characters. Where are they heading? what pushes them to act?

Likewise, asking yourself what the characters feel, making them act according to their values to maintain a certain logic, all of this is part of what we can call empathy for the characters we create. Personally, I have always really liked the characters in my stories and when I had to create “bad guys” it was never easy and I often write them a past that helps enlighten readers.

A few words from professor Will

Carmine Will is one of the characters of fiction created for Fantastic L.A.

Astronomer and lecturer, he works in parallel at the Los Angeles Observatory and collects art objects.

As you know, for several days will be visible the comet Tsuchinshan – Atlas with exceptional particularities. It was born in the Oort cloud an assembly of planets and celestial bodies, a journey counted in millions of years.

Professor Will invites all readers and you, patient Internet users to observe the sky from time to time, even if the events are not always the easiest. A little cosmic poetry.

The double

Specialist reviews in my profession are a very important contribution of knowledge but also of discoveries. Today I would like to tell you about the solaris magazine for which I have an annual subscription and which I read regularly. This journal contains a set of short texts written by several international authors. The main theme is fantasy and science fiction. I think that when a review is qualitative and monthly it is interesting. As a quantity of information, this is more easily manageable than too frequent publications. As a professional, I would like to write under contract for a specialist reviews related to my activity. The adventure seems exciting to me.

That said, one of the articles that interested me the most concerns a notion that is widely used in literature, cinema and other arts, it is the double. This double that can be an enemy or an ally and this in several other spatio-temporal dimensions. Sometimes it is an alter ego that questions us about this other self.

This literary process is not easy to implement. I advise you to test it in your story with one of the characters and to evaluate whether it is necessary, whether it brings new light to the discourse you want.
