hey guys, could someone please help me the analysis of this leunig cartoon. I just need to know what you think it means and all that kind of stuff, lol. THANKS SO MUCH! :)
Its the one where he is walking on his mind and it says, "Let it go. Let it out. Let it unravel. Let it free and it can be A path on which to travel"

Here is my interpretation

I would say that the character needs to allow his mind to be free, so that it is able to go on it own journeys. If your doing imaginative journeys then it could be seen as allowing your mind to wonder and go on imaginative journeys.
Your mind allows you to travel wherever you wish to go, and in an imaginative journey it is the path in which you follow.

The persona in the cartoon is standing on a strip of his own mind that symbolises the path that we take in our life, our life is led by our subconsciousness, often we don't realise this. We must imagine, we must be speculative and we must be creative to walk through the unpaved road of world. The dark night pretty much is used to galvanise the world of subconsciousness. 'Let it go. Let it out' represents the imagination that could carry us beyond the world of limits and boundaries. If you are studying "On Giant's Shoulders" by Melvyn Bragg as your prescribed text, I would pretty much use Freud chapter. This is an excellent choice. GOOD LUCK

[FONT=&quot]Hi I m doing an assessment about imaginative journeys and the question is “analyse how concepts of imaginative journeys are presented in these texts” and I’m trying to relate it to this to Limetree and Kubla Khan as well as Secret Garden…….Any ideas? Would appreciate it a lot. Have the test on Tuesday = dooms day. :)[/FONT]

In my opinion there's a better leunig cartoon that represents an imaginative journey.. Pretty sure it's called "the life you lead" where the character is reflecting on his life and comes to the cliche fork in the road which shows the life he could have lead. Heaps of techniques in it too, i used it and got full marks

Heyy

As this appears to be a popular text, is there anyone who has already done this text in a previous year who could post their response?

I'm finding this assessment to be difficult and any help is veryyy welcome.

Thanks
xx
