History of Love

Instead of "really good summary for homework" I want to talk about a little detail of the book. There are chapters in the book, named "Age of Glass" "Age of String" "Birth of Feelings" "Age of Silence". These composed the History of Love. 

First;

Age of Glass :


"During the age of glass, everyone believed some part of him or her to be extremely fragile." In my opinion, this era has never ended, this is described as a pure feeling. Honestly, I can say that it is the beginning of love which has full of hesitates and fears. 


Age of Silence;

This era refers to ancient times when nobody knows the actual language. People talked with their mimics. This era has never ended too. Krauss mentions that the foreignness of the body as "is a way to remember how it feels to say nothing together" and

"when it’s too dark to see we find it necessary to gesture on each other’s bodies to make ourselves understood."

It represents that age of silence is both loneliness and association.


The Birth Of Feeling: 

It is described as a human being. When a human being starts to feel something inside, that means life. And this is chain reaction feelings come after feelings. For example, love might turn into a hate.

On the other hand, people become more and more greedy. That is another chain reaction. The more you want the more you waste. 


Age of String: 

"Sometimes the smaller the distance, the greater the need for the string"

I can interpret this era as the end of life or feelings. Because when it happens you can't find a word to tell yourself. When you finish something you have nothing to say.

And also I can say that this is the era when we wanted to everything. It is the era when we worked hard to get what we want. In real history, it was the hard times for everyone. We used technology for everything 





“When will you learn that there isn't 


a word for everything?
