1. Literature serves two main functions - to entertain (dulce) and to teach or convey virtues (utile). It acts as a medium to clarify experiences, organize reactions to life, and gain experience without direct exposure. 2. Literature brings together experiences and ideas from different fields of study. It can increase contemplation of beauty and express emotions in a way that increases health. 3. Each literary work has integrity, individuation, and harmony - referring to the meaningful structure, uniqueness, and proper proportion of parts to the whole. Literature imitates life through both fiction and non-fiction.

The document discusses debates around the function of literature. It notes that some see literature's primary function as moral and useful for teaching, while others view it as an art form meant for enjoyment. The basic debate centers around whether the purpose of reading literature is to teach or entertain, and if reading can be done purely for pleasure or requires learning. Ultimately, understanding a text's function requires reading it through both academic and non-academic lenses. Different perspectives see literature serving educative, entertaining, experiential, cultural, and ideological functions.Functions of literature

1. Narratives are fundamental to how humans make sense of their lives and the world. We use stories to understand events, construct identities, and motivate actions.
2. Culture and organizations can also be understood as composed of many interrelated narratives that give coherence and shape norms, values, and change over time.
3. Narrative theory provides a link between the individual narratives that compose our identities, and the larger organizational strategies and cultures that these narratives interact with and help perpetuate. Narratives are key to both the micro and macro levels of human meaning-making.際際滷 for the IoE Critical Realism Reading Group - Critical Realism and Drama...

This document discusses a mythopoetic inquiry approach to clinical skills. A mythopoetic inquiry creates an alternate narrative to the dominant story by writing the narrative as it is lived. It has its own logic while also connecting to reality. Artmaking can bridge imagination and reality in this liminal process. A mythopoetic inquiry assumes there is an underlying alternate story influencing the inquirer, nudging them to participate more consciously with its logic. The experience of the practitioner is the true meaning, as they travel through images that arise in their journey with different voices. Steps proposed for entering one's own mythopoetic inquiry include deep democracy, archetypal activism, and the diaphoric imagination.Pythagoras

Pythagoras was a philosopher born in Samos in 570 BCE who acquired knowledge from great thinkers of his time. His key ideas included the Pythagorean theorem, the transmigration of the soul, three kinds of life, self-discipline through rituals and purification, and that numbers and mathematics are the ultimate reality underlying patterns in nature. Following Pythagoras' ideas allows one to live in harmony by understanding the simplicity and symmetry in the world, accepting others as equally important, and pursuing knowledge and wisdom.Deep Biomimicry: Co-creating With the Dream of Nature

This document discusses deep biomimicry, which aims to consciously emulate nature's designs and principles in a way that respects ecological systems and all life. It provides examples of how bullet trains and medical adhesives were inspired by kingfishers and shark skin.

It calls for a deeper approach informed by animism, indigenous ways of knowing, and an understanding of nature as conscious and purposeful. The goal is for humans to cooperate with natural systems rather than view them instrumentally.Deep Biomimicry: Co-creating With the Dream of Nature
