<p>The expression "lost city," popularized by Bingham, was the magical elixir for rundownimaginations. The words evoked the romanticism of exploration and archaeology at thetime, in the summer of 1911</p>

<p>Motivation</p>

<p>The words "evoked the romanticism of exploration and archaeology" at the time, in the summer of 1911.</p>

<p>ANALYSIS:
Now this could go two ways; I feel that, depending upon how you read and interpret the phrase quoted above, either one could be correct. </p>

<p>1st - THE WORDS evoked the romanticism...
This seems to indicate the power of the phrase; ("The words")</p>

<p>2nd - THE WORDS themselves couldn't be the direct and only reason behind why the "romanticism of exploration and archaeology." It's a matter of confusing the meaning;</p>

<p>(DIRECTLY FROM MY HAWAIKAWA BOOK in my "Language and Human Behavior class") "The word is not the thing, cow1 is not cow2,..."</p>

<p>If you were to say that the POWER OF THE PHRASE "magic elixer," made them re-initiate their interest in exploration and archaeology, you would be confusing the word with the thing. "THE WORD IS NOT THE THING." </p>

<p>CONCLUSION:</p>

<p>Motivation makes sense because it's not the phrase that's doing the actual revitalizing of exploration and archaeology, it was a motivator in the form of a metaphor. Thanks for listening! </p>

<p>The answer: Motivation.</p>

39

<p>it has to be motivation</p>
