Throughout the semester, we had a plethora of lectures that were very helpful and intriguing. With many options to choose from, one of the lectures that enjoyed was "What Does It Mean.. To Be... ? lecture. This lecture that we had was about what does it mean to be broken and whole and trying to get different meanings on what it means to be whole and broken. The reason why this was one of my favorite lectures was you were able to hear people come up with their own ideas on what it means to be whole and broken which was very interesting to me.
The second favorite lecture that we did during the semester was the desire lecture. This was one of my favorite lectures that we did throughout the semester for a few reasons. First off, this lecture really put a ton of things in perspective between the things that are needs and wants. Some of the things that I thought needs in your life turned out to be wants like religion, marriage, and formal education. When we finished this lecture that day, it definitely got me thinking of what we actually need in our lives compared to what we want.
My third and final lecture that really interested me was the literary time period lecture. This lecture was about how certain time periods throughout history, there was certain types of writing that were created and written. It was very interesting to me how many different authors wrote about stuff before the post modern era. These authors wrote about anything from imagination, nature and spirit, and the American dream. Personally I have no clue how these authors were able to write about stuff not from the post modern society that we live in today.
