The Scriblerus Memoirs: Crisis on Infinite Campuses
http://scribleruslives.blogspot.com/2010/04/crisis-on-infinite-campuses.html
Crisis on Infinite Campuses. Clearly my blogging impulses have waned these last two years. Perhaps as the project upon which I've been working has developed, my willingness to share it has diminished; once I decided it was worth protecting, I decided to protect it. Protect it from what, you ask? Who are actually exploring new avenues and other options. But, it seems, they do so somewhat at their peril, and perhaps it's having spent the last year (two years? During the course of the proceedings, a convers...

The Scriblerus Memoirs: October 2008
http://scribleruslives.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Having received one of the three seals of approval needed to proceed to the next stage of the terrible life choice I've made, I decided to treat myself to a brief sojourn from it-that-must-not-be-named in order to spend some time with something not yet on any syllabus anywhere. I first read Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. Four or five summers ago; three years ago I read Quicksilver. The first two parts of The Baroque Cycle. I finally got round to part three, The System of the World. A term mutually deri...

Nostradamus Goes to the Bookshop. My roommate has a subscription to New York Magazine. Let's pick this apart. That gave the number some measure of rhetorical if not practical force (274). Which is not to say Johnson gave it any credit. I bring this up for no other reason than I found it interesting that fifty is the new hundred, at least according to this article. I quite wonder whether there would have been different answers for different periods. If Atonement. Another interesting thing at work here is ...

The Angel and the Algorithm(s). For this most part this post is about not having posted recently. It'll therefore be largely free of anything approaching in-depth analysis, discussion, quotation, or purposefulness. Also I want to finish it before Lost. I've spent the last few weeks bogged down by an examination of Paradise Lost. That I now feel fairly certain will end up being thoroughly redundant. A wiser scholar than I might say there's no shame in not having anything new to say about Paradise Lost.

By Force or Guile. We'll move right past the amount of time it's been since I last posted as it will only recall to me how much time has gone by since I've done anything the least bit substantive. I'm sure there's an easy way I could do this myself, but I'm too flustered to find it, and I want answers, so I'm asking you. I might soon put the question to the C-18L list as well, but for the moment I lack the nerve, and it's not really an 18th century question. We may with more successful hope resolve.

Have a Shandean Halloween, everybody! Please carve the face of your ideal jack 'o lantern in the space provided. Others who are smarter and better read will be better able to answer the following question:. Why hasn't Sofia Western read Pamela. And this question, too:. Why hasn't Clarissa read Pamela. Maybe even this question:. Why hasn't Arabella read either? Why hasn't Miss Betsy Thoughtless read any of 'em? The novel, for all its formal realism and pretensions to representing a world sans. Fairies and...
