Question: I've written a book and thinking of making the title Cassandra Complex!. Do you think people would understand!?
I've written a book and want the title to be Cassandra Complex, or something along those lines!. Do you think the title would be understood where none of the people in the book are named Cassandra!?



[[[By the way: A Cassandra Complex, is situations in which valid warnings or concerns are dismissed or disbelieved!.

The term originates in Greek mythology!. Cassandra was a daughter of Priam, the King of Troy!. Struck by her beauty, Apollo provided her with the gift of prophecy, but when Cassandra refused Apollo's romantic advances, he placed a curse ensuring that none would believe her warnings!. Cassandra was left with the knowledge of future events, but could neither alter these events nor convince others of the validity of her predictions!.]]]Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
A person with a persecution complex is someone who thinks they are being persecuted!.!.!.but they aren't being persecuted at all!.

So a Cassandra complex would be someone who thinks they know better than everyone else, and that everyone is going to regret not listening to them!.!.!.and then they turn out to be totally wrong!.

Don't use the word "complex" if the person is a genuine cassandra!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

it would probably make more sense if someone was named cassandra, but if that's what you want to call it then go for it!. it's your book!.
