Document Summary
Little gidding fire: anglican-benedictine monastery, pentecostal fire, perilous chapel in the wasteland. Chapel is the presence of the trinitarian god: sin is behovely. Odd way of thinking about sin in a positive way. Without sin, there would be no need for christ (some people believe this: section 4. Meter gives the sense of urgency and torment. Either fire of hell or pentecostal fire. The 3 fates would sow your fate: section 5. When we die, there is new life. Everything you do creates your own history. We will not know the full meaning of what it means to be human, until all of the humans have lived their lives. We are the words within the poem of eternity. Rose is a symbol of new life which can be combined with the pentecostal fire. Music: everything that we listen to is about uncovering insights into human meaning, world of immediacy. Language now mediates between us and our experiences: adult world.
