Dia 3 Sta Maria Madalena, de Josefa de Óbidos, 1650 Museu Nacional Machado de Castro, Coimbra ÉCLOGA X Antes que o sol se levante Mote Antes que o Sol se levante, vai Vilante ver seu gado, mas não vê Sol levantado quem vê primeiro a Vilante. Voltas É tanta a graça que tem com üa touca mal envolta, manga de camisa solta, faixa pregada ao desdém, que se o Sol a vir diante, quando vai mungir o gado, ficará como enleado ante os olhos de Vilante. Descalça, às vezes, se atreve ir em mangas de camisa; se entre as ervas neve pisa, não se julga qual é neve. Duvida o que está diante, quando a vê mungir o gado, se é tudo leite amassado, se tudo as mãos de Vilante. Se acaso o braço levanta, porque a beatilha encolhe, de qualquer pastor que a olhe leva a alma na garganta. E inda que o Sol se levante a dar graça e luz ao prado, já Vilante lha tem dado, que o Sol tomou de Vilante. Éclogas, X

ResponderEliminarI liked the book because although there are mistery, I felt like I was into the Grenouille's mind.
In my opinion, this book is recommended for people who like some controversial stories.
I liked the way the story criticises indirectly the society of that time. The description of all the details about people, the environment and even the mind of the society of that time are captivating.
And I think that the end is really unexpected and interesting. It really makes us think.

ResponderEliminarI didn't like the story of this book. It is horrible how such a bad and evil person like Grenouille did everything he planned. It´s atrocious how every person felt bad in his presence. I don´t understand him, how he thinks, what he feels and it is disturbing to me how he did whatever he wanted, it didn´t matter how awful it was. None of all those evil thoughts and actions came back to him, he always got away with it. He didn´t like any kind of love, not for people, not for animals, not for plants, not for anything at all. Anyway, I think this book describes very well all the smells and scents and how were the cities and the people of the time.

ResponderEliminarI enjoyed reading the book because the author gives the readers a detailed description in a way
that makes us feel that we belong to the plot.
I started to like more the plot after Jean-Baptiste Grenouille arrives at Grasse. I think it caughts
easily anyone’s’ attention, it’s when he learns the techniques of scent extraction and he murders
25 girls.
My favorite character is Laure Richis because she represents the part of the society that only
cares about beauty, even Grenouille wants her and since she dies in the end I think it means
that society shouldn’t give such magnitude to beauty, therefore it could have a terrible ending
like Laure Richs and the rest of the characters.
I recommend this book because it shows the past(eighteenth century), how people lived before,
the places where they lived. It’s a book which gives us culture.
