Davjos Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I think we can all agree the forum has become a tad disappointing. This has awoken a desire in me to read older, classic topics and theories. So I invite the most knowledgeable, most experienced member of this beloved forum: link your favourite discussions, your pet theories, the classics below. I’m looking for comments/discussions the old school guys thoroughly enjoyed. I know ‘A compendium if theories’ exists and if this post is too similar, I’m sorry. I am not looking just for theories though. Thank you for the suggestions! Edit: please refrain from posting your crackpots that you deem under appreciated. Although interesting, I’m looking for topics considered a must read for everybody by you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seams Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I really learned a lot from posts by sweetsunray: These threads opened my eyes to the complexity of the literary hints that GRRM has built into the books. I am not terribly knowledgeable about mythology, so that background here was also helpful to me. I knew that GRRM had been a screenwriter for the tv series Beauty and the Beast, but I didn't realize how richly he had drawn on that story for the many bear / maiden fair allusions in the books, as well.

Davjos Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 @Seams I've seen the bear and the maiden but never got to actually reading it. Thanks a lot!! @Ser Leftwich Sadly I'm very familiar with this theory, since I fully support it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HexMachina Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 For any fan of Sansa, Pawn to Player series is a must read. Even if you disagree with what people said there, the level of analysis and amount of work is very pleasing to behold. Many of the re-read projects are excellent. The Jon and Dany ones especially.
