(Going on forty hours of no sleep! ...I really have to stop doing this, it's so unproductive.)
Today's lecture was on how war changes language, for an example of this we watched the final episode of the cult British comedy television series Blackadder. ( spoilers I guess )
Context! Context! Like the context where nonfans wonder at the appeal of slashing two male characters together! Speaking of, our next paper in that class is Regeneration-themed (I take back everything trivial I said about this book, it's brilliant). We're supposed to draw parallels between the book's treatments of communication and memory and the larger historical implications of same.

worldserpent, I am going say that homosexuality was something everyone was talking about, but in indirect double-speaking ways, and how this was similar to not being able to openly denounce the war. Actually I'm not positive there is any validity to this what-so-ever, I just want an excuse to systematically go through the book looking for circumlocutions XD.
