Hm, this is a tough one. If you <em>use</em> this make sure to <u>rearrange</u> some of the sections and add in some of <em>your own words</em>, ok?
Dante Alighieri was a very <em>untraditional</em> writer, for unlike most other writers he sometimes followed the traditions yet he wasn't afraid to deviate and modify the old epic traditions. Most epics tell the adventures of a hero of old who vanquished evil, and to be honest Dante does recount a hero's journey. There is a major difference though between his and traditions though, because he varies this tradition by making himself the <u>theme/hero/subject/ect</u> of the epic called the Divine Comedy.
Epic poets were traditionally pagan and so they would often call on the Muses, known as patron goddesses of the arts, for their inspirations and to help guide their poems. Unlike them Dante was a Christian, and he refused to use the pagan gods <em>"gods"</em> in this epic. Instead he utilizes the Latin poet Virgil whom he calls <em>"my mentor"</em> and Dante's childhood hero Bice Portinari, whom he gave the name Beatrice as guides for the main character throughout the story.
Epics traditionally begin in "media res" which is Latin for "in the middle." Dante follows this tradition, although it's in his own unique way, by beginning the Divine Comedy <em>"halfway through the journey we are living,"</em> or in other words <em>"in the middle of his life"</em>.
Many of the epic poems of this time period state the theme of the poem at the very beginning. Likewise, Dante begins to describes in the first stanzas of his poem his fear and disquiet but then he offers a vision of hope to the readers. He says that <em>"to describe the good discovered there / I here will tell the other things I saw"</em>.

<h2>I had a dream all of my teeth fell out. </h2>
One by one, they crumble. I tried closing my jaw and the vacancy of my teeth letting me close it gum to gum. My mouth tasted of blo.od and it painted my carpet with a puddle of teeth. I woke up in a panic, feeling my mouth in my sleepy state, accidentally biting my finger. I yelped cradling it with my opposing hand. I manoeuvre my way to the bathroom and wrapped it up with gauze carefully. As I return to bed I pick up my phone and do the only logical thing I could do; I go,ogled it. The bright screen hurts my eyes. The results tell me I'm insecure, that something life-changing has happened, what a bunch of bull. I put my phone down shaking my head, trying to ease myself back to sleep. The next morning I woke up to no alarm... I look around and realize it is bright outside. I look around frantically for my phone that I must've forgotten to plug in. When I find it, to my despair it's dead. "I'm late!" I declare jumping out of bed, falling over as I throw on my clothes. I run down the stairs and to the couch opening my computer to log in. My hair sticks straight up in a crazy mess. "How are you late, you literally work from home?" my roommate asks. "Less questions, can you throw me a bagel?" she sighs getting up from the kitchen table. I log in as fast as I can making sure to turn off my camera as I try frantically to tame my hair. "Catch!" I look up just in time for a bagel to hit my square in the nose. "Thanks," I mutter picking it off my lap. "Sorry, I'm late!" I say, of course, it's the morning we have the meeting on which department deserves a pay raise. "It's fine Jaxon, we were just getting started" I sigh in relief as I mute myself and take a bite of my bagel. A few moments later I hear Ali, my roommate, go "You have some- blo.od." she points to my mouth and I grab a napkin spitting out my breakfast. "Oh my god, I'm gonna pu.ke" she runs to the bathroom as three teeth sit in the palm of my hand. I feel around my mouth with my tongue my other teeth wiggle with the movement. "What the..." my whole mouth aches. I start to panic and I get flashbacks. "Wake up, wake up, wake up!" I whisper to myself.
Explanation:
i love creative writing SO MUCH
you can replace Jaxon w your name bc i just used mine IoI
and u gotta remove the dots/commas in the words blo.od, pu.ke, and go,ogled (id,k why they censor them)
hope this helps:)
As the veneration of defunct ancestors is a fundamental element of most African traditional cultures, it is not surprising that the dead is also a common subject for masks. Masks referring to dead ancestors are most often shaped after a human skull.
Masks were very important during ceremonies because they were used to entertain the people. The masks made dancers look more exciting, and they played a major role in arousing the interest of the audience. The mask wearer can become a sort of medium that allows for a dialogue between the community and the spirits.
