If you feel, for instance, that well-read people are less likely to be evil, and a world full of people sitting quietly with good books in their hands is preferable to a world filled with schisms and sirens and other noisy and troublesome things, then every time you enter a library you might say to yourself, "The world is quiet here," as a sort of pledge proclaiming reading to be the greater good. ~Lemony Snicket, The Slippery Slope Ye knowe eek, that in forme of speche is chaunge With-inne a thousand yeer, and wordes tho That hadden prys, now wonder nyce and straunge Us thinketh hem; and yet they spake hem so, And spedde as wel in love as men now do; Eek for to winne love in sondry ages, In sondry londes, sondry ben usages. ~Geoffrey Chaucer, Troilus and Criseyde Hi! My name is rymenhild, and I'm an academic. Many posts here are public; feel free to read. I have also used several filters, including a teaching filter and a research filter; at the moment, almost all recent posts are under simple friendslock. Enjoy your stay in my geeky, bibliophiliac corner of LiveJournal.
