    Lucian’s A True Story

    But since that’s also credited as the first science fiction novel, we’ll give this “honor” to E.T.A. Hoffmann’s The Life and Opinions of the Tomcat Murr

    The bible?

    The multiple contradictory accounts of the various gospels have an avant garde sense about them, as if the author was trying to encourage independent thinking and to take a stand against the dogmatism of priests in favor of the legalistic free debate of the senatorial classes; after all very few thing can actually be agreed upon when the accounts are cut down to the things that they 'all' agree that they saw or heard.

    and it is, of course, a fiction.

          Why do the "epic owns" on Christianity always come from the part of the bible that was from Torah and the hebrew bible but no one actually dares the criticize israelites?

        The new testatment was written by multiple people and the old testatment is a collection of israeli texts wrote and collected by different people.

      I wonder whether other religious books are as full of contradictions as the bible. I should read more about different religions.

        Maybe some in Hinduism or one their unitary branches. I don’t know much about it. But the Bible suffers for needing to hook up the Old and the New, of course. It’s a massive embarrassment how little sense there is, and probably why so many convert to Islam or Mormonism, and certainly the cause of so many religious murders as factions splinter.

    Does anyone recommend this author? I forgot whether it was Yourcennar or Duras for which the consensus on this board was esssentially that she's really fricking boring to readl

      I do recommend her. Haven’t read Duras, but give it a try anyway.

      itt: anons demonstrate that they know nothing about literature.

      Time to prove you are not complete morons, why is Tristam Shandy or any other work from before the postmodernists, not postmodern.

      Meant to mention him above!
