four-part structure of a sonnet can have a great variety of worldly counterparts‚ be it the four elements‚ the four archangels or the four temperaments.

The film O Brother Where Art Thou is cleverly and intelligently based on the famous Odyssey by the well-known Homer. There are quite a few distinctive differences though. While in the movie‚ Ulysses didn’t have any affairs‚ his wife did not wait patiently for him‚ he had six daughters‚ and each of his accompanying men stayed with him until the end of the journey.
