Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject English Language and Literature Studies - Comparative Literature, grade: 1,0, University of Frankfurt (Main) (AVL), language: English, abstract: Since our very beginnings as a species, the human mind has always loved systems and structures because they help us to gain a clearer view of the deeper meanings behind our experiences. We use indices to chart plants and their uses, official classifications to guide our cohabitation, lists to organize and store data, schedules to control our workflow, and schematic diagrams to proffer detailed and in-depth explanation for certain concepts we want to transmit to other people. In short, there seem to be no practical data that cannot be edited and then published in the form of a directory or site map. And, of course, we have also used these structures to compile and collate information around topics of a more ideational type such as literature or music.
