Richard Aldington: A Biography
Snakes and Eels: The Slender Odds of Wiving Well
In A Dialogue Concerning Heresies, the character named Thomas More attributes to his father the quip that the choice of a wife resembles a man’s reaching into a bag full of snakes, hoping to grasp the single eel present in the bag. Subsequent versions of the “merry saying” record many different ratios of snakes to the one eel. Some recountings, through the centuries up to recent times, have explicitly cited Thomas More or his father, John More; a…

“Sheep Eat Men”: A Retrospective Proverb
The expression “Sheep are eating men” or “Sheep devour men” looks back to Utopia for its origin. However, no such concise expression actually occurs there. In recent decades the expression has frequently been quoted without awareness of the literary connection, assumed to have been proverbial in medieval or early modern times. Perhaps, in a strange way, it has become proverbial in our own time, although most often when it is uttered nowadays, it …
Archer Taylor Memorial Lecture 2006: Is the Pope Still Catholic? Historical Observations on Sarcastic Interrogatives
Genotype G9P[8] rotaviruses are rare in the territory of Russia. They were found in Nizhny Novgorod only in 2011-2012 for the first time, when their proportion was 25.9%. During the next two seasons, G9P[8] strains were detected in only 1.8% of cases. Their proportion substantially increased again in 2014, and they became predominant in the city by 2016. Phylogenetic analysis on the basis of gene VP7 nucleotide sequences showed that this increase…

Seeing through Colored Glasses
In the most literal sense, of course, glasses serve correct distortions of physical eyesight. On the other hand, badly made or wrongly prescribed glasses will cause their own distortions. The notion that metaphorical glasses can affect an individual's perception or outlook in ways beyond the ocular is quite old in the English language. For example, the crone in Chaucer's Wife of Bath's Tale (c1390) utters this paraphrase of the proverb friend in …

Is It “ A Utopia” or “ An Utopia”
In early texts, when an indefinite article immediately preceded the English noun utopia or utopian or the adjective utopian (or the eu- counterparts of such words), the article was nearly always an, even though (during much of that interval, at least) those “utopian” words were commonly pronounced with an initial consonant /y/, as they are today. Only in the middle of the nineteenth century did constructions like a utopia and a utopian start to a…
On Some Antecedents of More’s Epigrams 199, 210, and 214
More’s epigrams 199, 210, and 214, brief narratives about a drunkard who goes blind rather than give up alcohol, adapt Martial 6.78. The joke behind More’s and Martial’s poems flourished in jetsbooks of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, as well as in later oral tradition. However, More’s epigrams also belong to an old and continuing tradition of structurally-similar jests (and proverbs associated with those jests) that feature a character …
