I delight in the comparison between the "fellows" of Biblioll College and Jude Fawley--yearning, glimpsing, aspiring . . . towards the dreaming spires of Oxford.
As you point out, we can live the life of the mind and spirit whatever our circumstances and Biblioll College represents that "space"--one that can be shared for mutual enjoyment and edification here on Substack.
Thanks to all who desire truth, goodness, and beauty for their own sake . . . wherever they are to be discovered and savored.
Thank you for creating this imaginary place for widening the lens!
This was such a lovely and informative post. I joined along with the Dickens club somewhere in the middle of The Pickwick Papers, and loved reading (but never commenting) through every book/post/comment that followed.
Thanks to you all for expanding my horizons even more. Now, back to Agamemnon... :)
