Many of you may have thought of this already. I haven’t been through the blogs very in depth yet, but I think it’s interesting to put The Rape of the Lock from last week and Voltaire from this week. We have had two satires centered on beauty. I would love to hear your thoughts on having these two. Was this just a big deal in this time period, or is it just our professors’ strange sense of humor?
Just a side note, I think my favorite quote from this week was “"My Lady Baroness weighed three hundred and fifty pounds, and consequently was a person of no small consideration…" I still can’t believe that it actually says that.

p.s. I commented on His Beloved
