Who Needs an Interesting Topic for Master Dissertation?
Master dissertation is a piece of work that requires an interesting topic and profound research. I have some really fascinating information that can be used by those students, who need to write their master dissertation on literature. I suggest you to investigate the myths connected with plants in your master dissertation.
Almost any country has its own mythology and some tales that are transferred from the generation to generation. Plants have always played a significant role in the process of myths creation. The emergence of many objects has been explained form the plants point of view.
In your dissertation you can study myths of several countries with different cultures and compare their mythology. Tell what plants are the most commonly mentioned in myths, and what these myths explain.
For instance, in several Asian cultures a bamboo is often mentioned. This tree has always been an important part of the Asian people culture. It was used and is still used in many spheres of life, and perhaps this is the reason why there are a lot of myths about bamboo.
In some Asian countries people even believe that the humankind emerged from the bamboo. Some legends say that a man and a woman appeared from the split bamboo stems. Other legends say that a man was sleeping under a bamboo tree and was dreaming of a beautiful woman. When he woke up he found a woman inside a bamboo stem.
Bamboo can be found in the myths of China, Japan, Vietnam and some other countries. These countries have long and amazing history and culture, which I am sure, will be really interesting for you to investigate in your dissertation.
