I'm sure that it was very dramatic scene with a heavy object, and that it made quite a statement without needing to say very much. I'm glad to hear that you enjoy the dictionary as much as I do. I sometimes feel as though I am reading a living, breathing book , as it is updated often. happy word seeking! Thank you for sharing a dictionary scene in theater.

My favorite scene in Thackeray's Vanity Fair is when Becky Sharp, that favorite anti-heroine of Victorian lit, throws Samuel Johnson's dicitonary -- a graduation gift from her horrible school mistress -- out the window of her coach on the way out of school and into the world. It's like she's saying, Who needs to be told by a man, and a mean old school mistress, what everything means? It always had inspired me to read dictionaries with a critical eye and to not be afraid to have fun with words. Great thought provoking post, Alexis!!!!
