Back when the Twin Towers were attacked, I remember hearing about a song_and hearing the song itself as well_which described the life of a magnate coming to New York City. Everyone thought_don't know about the singer himself if he believed as well_that the song was a prophecy about Osama Bin Laden. And whoever heard it got chills seeing the similarity.

Does anyone remember this song or knows a translation to it?

I need to find a passage I remember in the Iliad for the paper I'm writing. It was Priam talking about his sons and describing them and what they were good at, and talking about how all his sons who were warriors were dead, and now all he's got is sons who aren't warriors.

If you remember this part let me know even if you don't know where it is so I know I didn't make it up. And, of course, if you know where it is, let me know and that would be amazing. But even if you don't, just let me know I'm not going crazy.

I want to make a book like Eragon. I do not want it to become a Narnia trainwreck. Can I still use mythical creatures without it turning into Narnia?

Preferably in the medieval/ancient time period, because those periods fascinate me the most. If the book is thousands of pages long, or written in Shakespearean or equivalent writing style, then don't suggest it please.

I read this novel after attending a University lecture comparing three "high concept" literary novels to storytelling in the pulp-detective genre.

But I never found out what the last line of the book meant... Its a phrase in Latin, possibly a quote from a medival author or manuscript.

It is:

"Stat Rosa pristina nomine, nomina nuda tenemus"

Anybody know what it meant AND how it connects to the story Eco told?
