| Name: | Pandora Pirandello | ||
| Birthdate: | 04-01 | ||
| Bio: | Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives. ------------------------------- Why Pandora? [Greek Pandōrā, having all gifts : pan-, pan- + dōron, gift.] 1. In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman on earth. The gods endowed her with many talents; Aphrodite gave her beauty, Apollo music, Hermes persuasion, and so forth. Hence her name: Pandora, "all-gifted". Interesting Fact: Pandora's name means the "one who gives all gifts" and actually has a positive connotation. In earliest times, she may have been perceived as a bountiful earth goddess whose gifts were all good. 2. The satellite of Saturn that is fourth in distance from the planet. Why Pirandello? Luigi Pirandello(1867-1936, born in Girgenti, Sicily): Pirandello's work was constantly devoted to the investigation of truth and the relationship between rational truth (reality) and socially accepted "truth" (manners?), social mentality and individual personality. He delighted in paradox and a sense of the absurd.
