It occured to me late last night, that if I were to write a book, it would be called Oblita Vincemus and it would deal with my preoccupation with memory. The Latin title was offered by Matt. What would be better than a Latin title for a book on memory? A dead language, knowledge of which is passed on intergenerationally by use of a primeval master-apprentice model. Spurred on by Lydia’s vocational shift, I am in the mood for writing. Should I apply my writing energy to this weblog, or should I take up a more “noble” project? How about my doctoral thesis?
