Promt #2

When Foster applied for King Solomon's quote by saying all," writing and telling belong to one story," he meant exactly what he said, however there's more to that quote. To go into more depth, what he means by this is that the existing or the true originality by an author is impossible. On page 187, Foster stated that," On one level, everyone who writes about anything knows the pure originality is impossible. Everywhere you look, the ground is already set on camp."
What he also means by this is that every single written piece, whether it has been published or not, is based on the same story that has been heard before. Readers would often find similarities between the text they read before and the text they're reading previously. They start to realize that the author is using the same elements in their story from another, but it's being used in a different way or different idea. These ideas add to the understanding and richness of the reading experience by showing readers similar perspectives along with many other ideas. It'll be more interesting and have more richness to hear a similar story that was heard before, but is used differently by other authors. This is using intersexuality that readers would eventually come across when they read a story, poem, or novel. In art in general, I've seen this kind of action in my everyday life. The most I've really seen it is in the stories I've read and the movies I watched. For example, in the Hunger Games, there was a scene where Peet's and Katniss were about to die by eating poisonous blueberries together since there could only be one winner. In my opinion, it reminded me of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Even though it was similar to Romeo and Juliet, it was used in a different idea.
