Prompt #4

With this in mind, all authors and readers are able to connect on an intellectual level even if they perceive the art as something different. Art comes from nature, nature is the original muse, but within nature comes twists to the imagination where one creates their own stories and ideas about nature. It’s the way they are able to connect with nature and their art that inspires others to do the same, but instead, they are inspired by that previous work. “The author may be reworking a message, exploring changes (or continuities) in attitudes from one era to another, recalling parts of an earlier work to highlight features of the newly created one, drawing on associations the reader holds in order to fashion something new and, ironically, original.” (39) This displays how over time people are still inspired by past authors and artists. As in people will remain fascinated with Shakespeare and the way he perceived the nature around him.  He was able to draw from this nature and perceive it in a way that was original and that is what made him famous, the way he was able to perceive the nature around him in a different way. Without these perceptions and new ways of understanding texts people would no longer be discussing them, but something in the way that Shakespeare wrote has kept people in awe for centuries. When millions of people are able to connect around a certain author new art is formed whether in a literary sense or not. This new art is credited to an artist from centuries ago that has given someone new perspective for future artwork that will fascinate generations to come.
