Months ago I read a wonderful essay on some Doctor/Master community. I had it bookmarked then my hard drive crashed and I lost all my bookmarks.

The essay interpreted the Doctor/Master relationship through Edmund Burke's dichotomy of the sublime and the beautiful. It's basic thesis was that their relationship is so epic that it transcends anything beautiful or romantic and enters the universe shattering arena of the sublime.


The reason I want to find this essay is that I was having a discussion with a professor who teaches courses about cyberculture in the English department and she mentioned she had a couple students who wrote essays about fanfiction and slashfiction and they used Doctor Who as a case study. We're supposed to talk again some time and I was trying to remember where I read some of this interesting philosophical stuff.

Thanks.

Hey there, comm that I stalk obsessively but have yet to contribute too! :D

I felt guilty about not giving any sort of... anything, in exchange for all your nice D/M comm-ness. My art is waaay under-par, and it's been a long time since I wrote a fanfic that didn't make me cringe so much when I beta'd it that I had to delete the thing. So here's a fanmix! For the time being, anyway. :)
