  Came here to say this. To understand the forest's inner workings and mechanisms you likely wouldn't be setting up an afternoon picnic

  Yes. Did someone say they're not?

    Yes, you did: > trying to understand literature through text modelling is like trying to enjoy nature by counting the trees in the forest
    • YeGoblynQueenne 4y ago
      Where does the text you quote say that trying to understand and trying to enjoy are the same thing?
      • LudwigNagasena 4y ago
        It implies that they are similar in some important ways and thus comparable in the given context and thus not totally different.

          Where does it do that? Show me.

              Where does that say that enjoying and understanding is the same thing? Show, me.
