I'm reading old diaries this week - never a good plana nd it's giving me rather a lot to think about/reasess etc which I think will probably end up being spewed here at some point.
But the one thing I have to say now is - how the hell did I ever get a degree from Durham?!
I've just found my assessment of my finals papers with some of the questions written out.
I wrote an essay with the title:
"In a society whose beliefs and practices constituted a denial of human imagination and creativity it was the poets role to keep open a sense of alternative possibility" Assess the validity of this claim with reference to at least two writers (not necessarily poets) of the Romantic era.
Hmmmm, I got a comfortable 2:1 on that paper. 2 years on and I don't even know what all the words mean!!
Okay, exaggeration I do, but no way could I even begin to answer the question
*sigh*, how very very sad.
I think people really do go into decline post 21!
