Private pagus
"Some
thirty inches from my nose
The frontier of my Person goes,
And all the untilled air between
Is private pagus or demesne.
Stranger, unless with bedroom eyes
I beckon you to fraternize,
Beware of rudely crossing it:
I have no gun, but I can spit."
The frontier of my Person goes,
And all the untilled air between
Is private pagus or demesne.
Stranger, unless with bedroom eyes
I beckon you to fraternize,
Beware of rudely crossing it:
I have no gun, but I can spit."
(W. H. Auden )
Home as a
private area, as a cocoon, as a shelter. Home as a place to hide our secrets.
Home,
ως ιδιωτικός χώρος, ως ένα προστατευτικό κουκούλι, ως καταφύγιο ψυχής και
σώματος. Ως χώρος εναπόθεσης των
κρυμμένων μας μυστικών.
