![]() ![]() In 2013, the British Library released a book which took the study of these creatures seriously and offered a full and detailed account of the menacing artwork appearing on these maps. Although some of the images seem fantastic to the modern world, most of the creatures had some basis on true encounters, and their depiction on maps are a great example of how mythology and folklore can evolve from real events. These monsters of the deep had caused concern – indeed struck fear into – sailors around the globe. Until a few years ago, no serious consideration had been made of the many and varied representations of monsters found on world maps from the 10th century through to medieval and Renaissance times. Yet they made so many appearances for a reason. ![]() ![]() ![]() London has never seemed so far away-until Demeter unexpectedly turns up as a guest.

"Wildly entertaining." -The New York Times ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And yet I find that almost everyone with whom I have read this essay-whether they are twelve or twenty-immediately understands what it refers to. Students write in this way because it is the style of so much of what is presented to them to read. Orwell’s target throughout the work is a kind of academese to which students so often fall victim. ![]() He both quotes and mocks up examples of incomprehensible overwriting, telling us with characteristic wit how to write and, more pressingly, how not to. In the essay, Orwell provides a catalogue of linguistic “swindles and perversions” that include “pretentious diction”, “meaningless words”, “operators” and “dying metaphors”. I teach George Orwell’s 1946 essay ‘Politics and the English Language’ to all students, whether they are at the beginning of secondary school or heading off to university. ![]() ![]() ![]() Over the past 6 months, this poem has been steadily drawing me in. Or perhaps I had read it before, somewhere along the lines of school and university modules – but it had never come to me in the right way, anyway.
