I agree with the author. Now that so much can be explained medical wise it takes away the more mysterious illnesses and monsters so to speak in literature. Nothing can be unknown it seems.
I agree with the author, now writers always describe the disease with so much detail that nothing is unknown. I liked it when a writer described the disease a little, but not too much and you could decide for yourself what was wrong with the character. Modern writing has lost it's room for interpretation or imagination.
I agree with the author here too. Almost anything medically can be cured now a days, so it takes out some of the scariness of being sick. A long time ago writers could write about a fever and readers would be concerned. Cures take away the worry of readers about medicine in literature.
I suppose I agree with him. Modern medicine has stolen something from literature of today. It used to be that in a story or novel when there was a sickness there was not explanation for it, and the mystery of the unknown sickness added to the mood of the plot. Now it's so easy to identify sickness that it takes away the suspense of worry for the sickened character, the wonder if they'll live, and the idea that there may be no cure for them.
I definitely agree with the author. Since practically every illness can be cured or at least explained today, the illnesses don't seem as bad as they used to. The knowledge take some of the interest out of the illnesses. There's really nothing left for you to figure out on your own or anything for the author to tell you, because we know all about most of the illnesses today.
I totally agree with the author. The fact that medicine is so advanced now makes it really hard for authors to leave mysteries with illnesses. It kind of takes some of the mystery out of the whole story in some cases.
I agree with the author. Now that medicine is so advanced, it is difficult for authors to know specific details to put in their writings. Since almost every illness is known, it would be difficult to create a mystery around abnormal symptoms because the illness could easily figured out.
I'm kind of in the middle on this one because i see how we lost some imagination by doing so. There is no magical creation of maggots in rotten food or making rats appear by leaving crumbs under a blanket. People did used to be very superstitious without science but in retrospect we now gain a different view of things to create horror like resident evil where there is a retro-virus that creates living dead.
I agree with the author. Due to the development of modern medicine and the ability for us to diagnose almost any illness, it is hard for authors to use illnesses as an element of mystery in a story. We all can usually tell what kind of illness it is and it takes away from some of the mood of the story.
I agree with the author but I also disagree. I agree with the fact that medicines and illnesses are more developed and most of the time can be cured. But there are also some diseases that can't be cured and there are modern authors today that do have mystery with medical things but I'm not one who likes to guess at what is wrong with someone, I like to be told and then go on not dwell on it.
I agree with the author on this one. We have lost alot of that sense of illness being a mystery with all the massive developments over the year that we now what most of the illnesses are now which takes away from the mystery and unknown.
I can agree with the author. Giving us so much knowledge about illnesses takes away the mystery. It’s really hard to really have any imagination with the story when they give you so much detail.
i do in fact agree with the author. due to the fact that we have so many medical finding in todays life, it takes away from some of the suspense due to the fact that there is rarely a medical issue we do not currently know about.
