Week 2 Reading Overview

I have decided to go for the public domain Ramayana. The only factor that really influence my decision was not wanting to spend any money on the book. I am not afraid to read "old" language at all. In fact I find old language to be kind of funny and cool.

The first comic I chose was the Tales of Balarama. This one looked interesting to me because of the action scenes that are given by the summary. I enjoy books that have a lot of action and fighting scenes so this seems like a good comic for me. The next comic I chose was Parashurama. The reason I liked this one was because of the sons loyalty to his father. It is very strange to think about killing your own mother because your father told you too. The level of devotion to what his father says is mind boggling.

Next for the videos, I choose the Stages of Life. What caught my eye about this video was the way that the story was told by drawing. I really enjoy watching the youtube videos that are made by someone drawing and then talking over them. They are easy to follow and usually pretty interesting.
The final video I chose was Enemy of the Reich: The Noor Inayat Khan Story. I chose this one because I live world war 2 history. I have been reading about world war 2 history since I was in the 5th grade. This movie seems very cool. I know a lot about the war so I am very surprised to hear about someone from India being in Paris at the time of the conflict.

Old style India painting

I chose this picture because I like this old style of art. I think the reason this art looks this way has to be because of the paints that were used in this time period. Some of my favorite European art looks like this. I am surprised to see the same style being used in India.
