"Viewed in the light of what has gone before, the awakening of the forsaken sleeper in these ceremonies probably represents the revival of vegetation in spring. But it is not easy to assign their respective parts to the forsaken bridegroom and to the girl who wakes him from his slumber. Is the sleeper the leafless forest or the bare earth of winter? Is the girl who awakens him the fresh verdure or the genial sunshine of spring? It is hardly possible, on the evidence before us, to answer these questions." (Frazer 155)
Remembering how we are not to use the word "just" this semester I wanted to post this video which I believe exemplifies exactly why we should limit our usage of the word. If anyone is particularly interested, one of the things I like to do is keep track of the movies brought up in class and blogs and try to get copies of those movies for anyone who is interested in them.
If the quality is too pour to handle, I will make a cleaner version, just say the Word.
