In yesterday’s lesson, Wednesday, 18th of July,2007, we were taught to identify the implicit meanings of each dialogue given in the book. First and foremost, we were made to read a dialogue between three witches. Next, we were made to read a dialogue from the first scene of Macbeth and a dialogue between Popova and Looka. Lastly our lecturer read to us a dialogue between a mother and a son.
All these dialogues were very implicit in meaning. Most of us did not understand the meaning of the dialogue at first but luckily, Dr Edwin explained to us the meaning resided in the dialogue. This helped me to understand each of the dialogue better.
It was interesting reading all these dialogues- extracted from various plays in this lesson as I found that it was very exciting to read dialogues. I get to know the various characters of human beings through the dialogues. I also get a clearer idea on how human expresses their feelings through their communication with other human beings. Through yesterday’s lesson, I learned that we should not judge a book by its cover as shown in the dialogue between Looka and Popova.
I enjoyed reading the dialogue between the mother and the son the most as I felt that this dialogue was very closely related to our daily lifestyle and it was very real. It was a conversation between an overly possessive mother to her only child-a son. It was enjoyable to read a conversation like this as I get to know how exactly a possessive mother will react when her son wanted to flee from her apron’s string. It was very funny as we can see that the mother were finding all kind of excuses to delay or to stop her son from going out and leaving her all alone in the house. I enjoyed reading this conversation as it is something so real and common in our daily lives.
All in all, yesterday’s class was an interesting and exciting one as I get to learn new things from this class. And once again, it was not boring or dull, it was fun and enjoyable!
