Buy essay on “Imaginary places”

Nowadays “Imaginary places” are not only our fantasy, but they are also some kind of places that we cannot and visit in real life. I would like to start my essay from one quotation that helped me to understand how to discuss topic of this essay. The quotation explains the main content of the imaginary places’ notion and their meaning for people. Let us explore it attentively and analyze how the World Trade Center site in New York City is now an “imaginary place”. Leonard & McClure said; “Such sites are, of course, actual places. We can go there; we can stand there, look, and realize that we are in the place. Yet, at the same time, these actual places are mythic because they embody meanings far beyond the scope of the events that happened and even beyond the limits of the physical locations themselves. It means that they are imaginary places.” (Leonard & Mcclure, 2003)
For example, I would like to describe people’s attitude to the “imaginary places” in the past, because exactly past formed our today’s point of view in related to many topics. Honestly, we see that imaginary world exists in all societies, in all epochs, but sometimes, due to the properties added to it, it acquires the special meaning. Exactly this original, playing immeasurably an important role of the imaginary world surrounded men and women of medieval West. Invisible reality was for them much more reliable and tangible, than that which they perceived by sense-organs; they lived, imaginations submerged in a reign, aiming to understand internal sense of outward them things in which, as Church asserted, there were in ciphers the messages addressed by him to ladies and gentlemen, – certainly, if only did not distort their value Satan. Nowadays the meaning and the essence of imaginary places greatly changed but they are still a part of our life and the World Trade Center site in New York City is a good example of such imaginary place.
Saying about the World Trade Center (WTC), we can say that it was a complex in Lower Manhattan in New York City. In 2001 in the September 11, the World Trade Center’s seven buildings were destroyed by terrorist attacks. The site at present rebuilt with six new skyscrapers and a memorial to the casualties of the terrorist attacks. Now this website considered an “imaginary place” that exists as a part of memory for people who know this place and for people who will never see beloved people. It will be very honest answer to say that people should remember their history and visiting imaginary places all people receive such possibility. Young people need to know how the place that they can see every day looked like several years ago and they should know its history. Old people can visit this place in their imagination and remember some events from their past life.
Imaginary places are important part of today’s life, because everyday we are looking for something new and sometimes even forget about historical places and people who were connected with these places. It is a good idea to create imaginary places and it is a good idea of creation of imaginary communities. I am not promoting against real places and real communities, but in my opinion people should have a chance to talk about their memories with people with the same interests and our past is the wonderful base for our future success and happiness.
I want to mention in this paragraph that such “imaginary places” are very important for 21st century Americans. In our consciousness the notion “imaginary place” can be defined as a place that exists only in imagination, it can be imagination of one person or it can be imagination of group of people, who are interested in one problem or question; also imaginary place is a place said to exist in fictional or religious writings. In our case, one taken website reflects events that had a place in American society several years ago. People who lost there their relatives will never forget the date of awful catastrophe and I think that the whole country will never forget that tragedy.
