Oh absolutely! :D To quote Casablanca - I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship. ;D

Absolutely! :-)))

What you write about your master thesis is really fascinating. I had to think about the reconstructed Rhine-Castles or the Wartburg, there the program of the murals and the architecture etc. also have to be seen in unison, as a "Gesamtkunstwerk". It's true for Westminster as well: new-gothic architecture and medieval saga, etc. That's the thrilling thing about 19th century: the interpretation of past epochs and their symbolic re-use in contemporary art. :-)

So far I've used this journal parts as a playground for non-academic things like books and movies, and also as a testing ground for academic ideas that I might try out in the future.
That's what I was planning to do as well. It's also a good thing to note down certain ideas etc. that otherwise might never get explored, or never published. That's what I had planned, but I have done very little so far.
I have to read through your posts when I do have a little more time for disposal... ;-)
