Well, class today didn't quite cover what I'd anticipated. We spent nearly two hours reading and discussing the work of Marquis de Sade. (If you haven't read his work, DON'T!!) The last hour, when we actually began discussing Camilla, was certainly much more pleasant than the first two hours....
I went to "recess" with a few other graduate students after class. ("Recess" is when a group of graduate students goes out for supper between the afternoon and the evening set of classes. We started calling our supper outings "recess" when one of the nontraditional students in the department said that his daughter had asked if he had any friends at school that he could play with during recess. Thus, we have recess.) Now it's back to grading papers....

In college I took a political theory course in which we read a chapter from Sade's Philosophy in the Bedroom. However, the parts that I remember have nothing to do with political theory!
