She had been lost, uncharacteristically, in the manuscript, a classic piece from the collection of the British Museum. There were no annotations, no commentary, on the photocopied pages. Her laptop, neglected, had turned itself off to save power. She sighed and shook her head as if to clear away the lascivious images.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCome in,\u201d she called, wondering who it could be. She often worked on Saturdays, precisely because the department was deserted and she could read and write undisturbed.<\/p>\n<p>The grizzled head of Harold Scofield poked through the door. \u201cHello, Miranda. I am sorry to intrude, but I have someone to whom I would like to introduce you.\u201d Miranda smiled to herself; her genial thesis advisor always sounded like a grammar textbook. The gray-bearded figure in suspenders bustled in, followed by an attractive young man in dark-framed eyeglasses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMiranda, I would like to present Mark Anderson, our new lecturer. Mark will be handling the Dickens course for the summer session.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMark, this is Miranda Cahill, my most promising graduate student.\u201d Miranda blushed, and Dr. Scofield\u2019s eyes twinkled. \u201cMiranda has chosen a rather controversial topic for her thesis, a new interpretation of the corpus of Victorian erotica.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The newcomer\u2019s polite smile expanded to a grin. \u201cReally. That\u2019s fascinating. Sounds far more\u2014stimulating\u2014than my dissertation on the metaphorical significance of orphans in Dickens and his contemporaries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miranda\u2019s blush deepened as she noted the double entendre. She met his teasing gaze, almost defiantly. \u201cYes, it is an intriguing topic, and I believe one of considerable literary and social significance, as well.\u201d He had thick, dark hair, slightly tousled. His eyes behind the glasses were velvety brown with glints of gold. In his face, she saw intelligence, energy, and humor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMiranda has championed an unusual theory, that the explosion of sexually-oriented writing during the latter half of the nineteenth century was a reflection of actual practices, rather than a reaction against repressive public morals.\u201d Her advisor appeared to be enjoying the role of agent provocateur. \u201cShe believes that the detailed accounts of sexual adventure and aberration published during the era chronicled real experiences, not merely fantasies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHmm.\u201d Their bespectacled companion looked both amused and interested. \u201cWhat evidence do you have to support this proposition?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, to begin with,\u201d said Miranda, automatically adopting an academic tone, \u201ca significant fraction of these writings are first person accounts. And a surprising number are related from a woman\u2019s perspective. If this were primarily a literature of fantasy and titillation, I would expect a male point-of-view to dominate, as it does in modern pornography.\u201d Miranda was encouraged to see that her audience listened attentively and gave due consideration to her points.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecondly, these tales are full of real-world details and commentary that would be superfluous and even distracting in fictional erotica. The protagonists discuss social issues such as poverty, child abuse, oppression of the lower classes, things that can only detract from a work intended as escapist fantasy. Even a hack pornographer knows better than to mention the unpleasant or the mundane, illegitimate pregnancies, unpaid bills, rising damp. Yet references to such items are common in the corpus.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFinally, I find in many of these writings a thoughtfulness that conflicts with the conventions of the pornographic genre. The narrators are engaged in a wide variety of sexual activities, which are described in vivid and provocative detail. At the same time, in many cases, they reflect on their own desires and behaviors, sometimes justifying themselves in the face of the official morality, sometimes castigating themselves for weakness and sinfulness. Either way, there is a psychological depth that would be redundant in fictional erotica.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, what you are saying,\u201d interposed Mark with a grin, \u201cis that a fictional character would simply go ahead and bugger his maid, whereas an individual writing a clandestine diary would spend some time and effort wondering why he wanted to bugger his maid, before he got around to actually doing it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For details about Lisabet&#8217;s <\/strong><strong>Incognito New Release Giveaway<\/strong><strong>, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/lisabetsarai.blogspot.com\/2022\/05\/a-naughty-cat-reveals-mystery.html\">https:\/\/lisabetsarai.blogspot.com\/2022\/05\/a-naughty-cat-reveals-mystery.html<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>About Lisabet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lisabet Sarai became addicted to words at an early age.
