Three professors. One week. One strained brain. Orality is about transmitting texts in oral language. Written is in script, which isn’t necessarily language with meaning or in its own language.
The second class of this third TISS-PARZOR Zoroastrian Perspectives course covered the religion of Zoroastrianism and its eschatology: the end times. What I’ve been waiting for!
Expanding on the previous post, I share what I learned about adding new material to oral texts so that novel hearers can follow, remember, and learn it.
Introductions and overviews may sound like an easy couple of hours, but the first two hours of this class peppered us with new concepts about oral traditions and a footnote on women in the Avesta.
Two novelists, two playwrights, two filmmakers, two masterclasses, a wealth of stories in the last two plus weeks of this Zoroastrian Perspective course.
