What does it actually mean to be bored? According to media you most likely get the impression that it is a disease that needs to be cured. And the word certainly has a negative tone attached to it. To be “bored” is not a state of mind where most people want to be. Therefore we live in a world where we can find all kinds of distractions and tools to make things as effective and entertaining as possible. In my essay “Upprepningar och tristess”, I explore the link between boredom, creativity and development. Through studies, books, essays and magazines I try to get under the skin of a hard definable topic. What has been written and what has been said? Is it overall just a bad thing that we should try to eliminate, or is it an important state of mind that we need to pay attention to and try to understand better? In the end, also my essay falls prey to the depths of boredom. / <p><em>My exam work consists of a written essay part and a formed/interpreted part.</em></p>
