Examples…"A Hazy Shade of Winter"

By Simon & Garfunkel "Hang on to your hopes, my friend

That's an easy thing to say

But if your hopes should pass away

Simply pretend you can build them again

Look around

The grass is high

The fields are ripe

It's the springtime of my life"

"In Memory of W.B. Yeats"

By W.H. Auden"He disappeared in the dead of winter:

The brooks were frozen, the airports almost deserted,

The snow disfigured the public statues;

The mercury sank in the mouth of the dying day.

What instruments we have agree

The day of his death was a dark cold day. "

Interlude:One story

Originality is impossibleCharacters resemble other characters"Intertextuality", everything is connectedArchetypes, displacements of mythsStories develop through other stories Stories that are about ones life is unoriginal as well because

we show repetitive patterns in the means of being human

Examples

"Families try to cope after learning their two teenage girls were switched at birth"

Both series on ABCF series the two shows share a common theme.
