So instead of something trite and drearily obvious and orange hallowe'eny style - my contest for this month is about All Saints, and All Souls day...
I want you to write about death, and the dead. It can tie into hallowe'en as much or as little as you like but I'll warn you I am looking for some genuine and honest emotion here, Hallowe'en is a holiday - not an emotion, and it has been done.
"If there be hell upon earth, it is to be found in a melancholy man's heart" R.Burton: "The Anatomy of Melancholy"
The concept of melancholy has been present in the European culture since antiquity. Ancient philosophers considered melancholy a disease, the worst of the humours, but also a source of genius and extraordinary intellect. In the Middle Ages melancholy was called "acedia", associated with seven deadly sins, and ascribed to Satan's interference. In the Renaissance times melancholy was the attribute of outstanding people and the main source of their inspiration. Modern melancholy theories include such concepts as "hysteria of the spirit", despair, spleen, ennui, Weltschmerz, the nausea, teadium vitae, or depression. Throughout centuries melancholy has been characterized by a large degree of ambiguity and alternately linked with positive and negative states. On the one hand it was a mental disease, the devil's invention and the curse for a suffering person, on the other hand, it was the source of creativity and inspiration. Melancholy is thus not merely sorrow and in my contest I'd like to see some creative interpretations of this concept. Do not limit yourself to gloomy depressive gothic images - try to catch "the other" faces of melancholy!
