Album 💿 title equals 🟰 book 📕 📖 📚 title. Numbers plus Song title equals 🟰 Chapters Lyrics equals Details. In my opinion the number is a chapter which means a main division of a book, typically with a number or title while the song title is a song title more of chapter 1 leaning towards book 📕 📖 📚. For me as a listener studio album 💿 and book 📖 📕 are the same. Because both books and studio albums have a song title and a number right next to it which is book 📕 📖 📚 and chapter.
I'd love to know whether Professor Plugfelder is drawing on life experience in his parody of the English professor, or whether he did any theater training to prepare himself for the role?
Interesting question, @tetzlaffjo ! We reached out to Prof. Pflugfelder, and he gave a rather cagey answer. The short version is that while he has no formal training in theater, he prepared for this role by immersing himself in Stanislavski's "method acting" rehearsal techniques during recent faculty meetings. This may, in part, explain his sudden, bizarre interest in reclassifying the School of Writing, Literature and Film as "The Tortured Poets Department"--a strange moniker that seems entirely of his own invention.
As the lesson suggests, pastiche and parody do differ from one another in terms of their attitude towards the subject they are copying. Pastiche is paying homage (often poorly) to the thing being copied, whereas parody is usually mocking that subject.
We did regard John Dryden's verse, "Mac Flecknoe" as a satire back in our history of literature class; but it directly and purposefully targets Thomas Shadwell and mocks him. How come it is a satire and not a parody?
Dang, that is a deep cut, Rezvan! The two genres definitely blend together in the 18th century's mock epics, but one easy way to answer your question might be to look at the form in which Dryden writes his poem and compare it with the common forms of Shadwell's poetry. Is Shadwell writing epics in heroic couplets? Or is Dryden parodying an elevated genre by placing Shadwell within it?
At least an attempt to sound genuine while reading from a script. The coffee cup doesn't add to the presentation. There are things to learn about giving presentations, but this appears to be a sterile sing-song version of academic rules without the ability to remain human. The valuable information is lost in the boring manner used here.
