Currently been reading some Russian classics that've been waiting pretty on my shelves for the longest time. Just the editions aren't yet in here. I'll see to it when there's a chance.

How on Earth do you mark a book as read for multiple editions?!

Oh I like this book. "Third, as a consequence, it seems to set up a stark choice at a specious crossroads between a cul-de-sac of autonomous and impenetrable theory and a through-road of critical practice, accessible language and direct encounter with literary texts."

Affective fallacy and intentional fallacy. Playwrights not intending plays to be the things of idiosyncratically affective nature? Any inference is and isn't with fallacy until you can perform the logic behind it. By using the clues in the text surely. Have I gotten linguistics all wrong? Wimsatt and Beardsley were a worrying bunch weren't they?

It's so nice to finally understand why my memory and brain 'keep things from me'. As in knowing things but not finding them and being so nerved in some situations. To find that childhood stress alters brain chemistry and structure. And that in rat kitten experiments it was the area of memory. In the end it was so easy as that. As I recall my childhood was stressful.

In the secluded love-filled house, no there are no ghosts only someone to "took to".

You betcha I am taking notes!

How fascinating!
