LOTR: Sméagol(Gollum) and the Duality of Man’s Nature

Cien Años de Soledad: Literature, Memory, and Resistance

Across cultures, histories, and generations, literature preserves, reimagines, and bears witness to the struggles of ordinary people.

This cycle ensures no history, struggle, or solitude is ever truly forgotten
