there isnt actually much out there on an imaginary life especially.. you have to go to your library and did up sum ugly dusty books and read like a million pages to get sumthing like a paragraphs worth of meaning! not easy!
theres the excel study guide but thats crap... too shallow, i think alot of the study guides are pointless, too preoccupied with wats the story saying, but your interested in a more detailed analysis constantly tied with context.... i think only you can help yourself there, so work with the little out there but enhance it your self
cheers

im in the middle of studing imaginary life... when u analyse the text you need to look at what ovid is referring to... such as his constant referral to time and what the landscape looks like... try and find the connections he makes in tomis... then having to leave again to become in touch with nature because he was been socialised in tomis just as he was in rome... look at the way malouf describes ovids experience, with his dreams and what he does with the child...
I am an English teacher and I can type them up now but they are rather long for a thread. Is there an address I can email them to or if you contact me through my private email address pamandian@iinet.net.au we might be able to work something out. I could send it tonight (Tues 6/6) if you wish. Isnt it called " An imaginary life" ? by David Malouf.heartshapedbox. said:Does anyone have any good notes on Malouf's "An Imaginary Journey" ?

An Imaginary Journey
First day of reading
First impressions: "This'll be interesting..."
Later in the day: "The extended descriptions are just trying to paint you a picture of the world Ovid's in..."
By the end of part I: "I've been reading all of this and only gotten two small sprinkles of meaning from it?! This is going to be a crawl..."
By the 3rd page of part II: A mix between "?????" and "Zzzzz..."
Who else?

Same!!! The feeling is mutual... Plus the title should be 'An Imaginary life'.intuiit said:An Imaginary Journey

Could I also get the notes by any chance?:uhhuh: I am in desperate need of notes....tigerian said:
It started to recover itself in the last 50 pages though : P
Overall, An Imaginary Life got Malouf's point in relation to "In the wild", although a little long-winded.
@~Fire Jade~: I'll try to post up a .pdf of my notes on the book I wrote up while reading.

When I first read 'An Imaginary Life', I was like ????? but we got to reread the novel in class...The class teacher finished reading the whole novel and up to the last lines she slowed down her voice and pace...it kinda touched all of the students in the class (weird) cos the ending seemed sad...so there was an eerie silence after the novel was completely read out.

Ooohhh, also Intuiit...we got the same avatar....hahahaha....I just kinda realised (I'm unbelievably slow ^-^) lols
Agreed. People make it out to be way worse than it actually is. It was easy to read, short and completely fit with the module. By focusing on just the major parts while studying, it was really easy to analyse.veloc1ty said:
