Subject:A slightly late Valentine's eBook
Time:05:36 pm
Sometimes I let myself fall into the habit of expecting all period literature to be terribly staid and respectable, because that's what one usually find transcribed. So I was slightly startled to come across The Choise of Valentines, or The Merie Ballad of Nash His Dildo. It's exactly what you think it is, a delightfully ribald little poem by Thomas Nash. Not exactly deathless poetry, but fun and a tad over the top...

Something that isn't period literature, but IS indeed literature-related & is quite thought provoking:

Hmm. Perhaps, but it's also dramatically off-topic. Sorry, but my blog isn't the space for other peoples' agendas -- this really belongs in a blog of your own.

I'm not going to delete this outright this time, but I will do so if it happens again in the future. Political discussion, even disagreement, is one thing, but it should be relevant to the topic at hand...
