>>6341454>>6341556>>6344084>>6344085Whenever we examine the annals of great literary works, the moments of heightened emotional intensity from the ancient age to the modern day, much of it describes families and MOTHERS, whether it is Gilgamesh asking his mother about a frightening dream, Achilles weeping, whining and imploring his mother for divine intervention all because he did not get his slave girl Briseis, Euripides Medea and her vengeance punishing Jason and Glauce (maybe it is worth murdering your offspring if you get to fly back to Iran / the Sun in a cool levitating chariot??), Beowulf slaying Grendel's Mother in the marsh / lake, Shakespeare's Lady Macbeth discussing her willingness to dash out the brains of her own child whilst breastfeeding etc and of course winding all the way through the 19th century, Austen, Bronte, Dickens, Balzac, Zola, Dostoyevsky Tolstoy so on so forth.
It does appear that a reliable and consistent technique to induce MASSIVE FEELING in any dramatic scenario is to invoke the Mother or MOTHER SURROGATE / disguised archetype, disregarding the discomfiture
