[QUOTE="Ferrix, post: 1892862, member: 6115"] Well considering I'm at a Canadian university where I focus most of my studies on "continental", if I'll use the word, philosophy it is still the case. Such traditions do not follow the very explicitly bare-bones, if I could just make this a set of logical cases type of analytics that is common. You can't bloat your work with drivel to make yourself sound smart, because the people who will be reading it see through it. I've spent a bit of time in the english department and I don't see the circumstances you talk about, although most of it was in the creative writing field. Perhaps things have changed, or perhaps our experiences are different. Whatever the case, academic language has it's practicality within the fields it is applicable to. And returning to the subject of academics within RPG's, I think it's a very interesting place to study the literary, social and other aspects since it is a relatively different domain of activity which hasn't been studied in great deal up till now. Off to class. [/QUOTE]
