Talk:Echo and Narcissus

Poem?
Ovid's Metamorphoses is a continuous poem, not a collection like his books of elegies. There is no independent poem "Echo and Narcissus" as such in the Metamorphoses, and this is also a myth that continues in later Western art and literature. "Echo and Narcissus" may (may) be distinguishable from Narcissus (mythology), and Ovid seems to have been the one who introduced Echo into the Narcissus tradition, so maybe it's OK as an article. But not as it stands. I'll change "poem" to "episode." Cynwolfe (talk) 15:11, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Bug Report: Dead Link in References
The page "Echo.html," anchored with "Technology Studies Illinois" in References is a dead link. Pity: that's always an interesting association. I like them because even before 2001 and IBM +1 = HAL came along, The Daily Illini nominated me for Secretary of Defense on the Pigasus ticket running in 1968. 'Bout the same time, Don Bitzer, head of the Engineering School, got his hands on the first ruby laser avaialble to consumers, used it to plumb up the supports for the roof of his back yard swimming pool. Technology in action! But Narcissus loving Echo is just too delicious these days. Didn't Metamorphoses have a bunch of stories about foxes, too? David Lloyd-Jones (talk) 04:51, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
