When I taught the Brit lit survey, one of the themes that emerged was the idea of honor ... easy to follow through Beowulf, 1 Henry IV, and Paradise Lost, for instance. And since I was running an honors program, I guess I had the idea on my mind.
So when I saw Star Trek last week, I was forced to realize that everything I think about honor probably came from the original series ... very disconcerting.
Of course, I can pontificate on the subject all day to little effect ... or I can point you toward this, if you haven't seen it already.
