James Boswell - We Meet Again

My Romantic hero for pp is on Jean-Jacques Rousseau and have spent most of yesterday gleaning info and putting the pp together.  Earlier this year, I was researching about an alleged distant relation of mine named Mary Bryant and wrote about my findings in LJ.  My research included the biographies of both Mary Bryant and her benefactor James Boswell (pictured above). He was a well-placed Lord with his heart in the right place, but alas his other organ was often found in all the wrong places.

Cutting to the chase, I am researching Rousseau and it appears that R's wife Therese had an affair with James Boswell, who was staying at the house at that time and quite likely bore him a child, according to Infed.org

Well, well, well, Mr Boswell - we meet again.  You put yourself about a bit, don't you?

Gardner Multi Intelligences Test

Been away all day training, so running behind with work a bit.  I have come across an interesting questionaire on the website Business Balls, which were quite interesting.  At the bottom of the page, there is a series of tests - they tend to outline how each individual person best learns.  I scored higher in Musical and Linguistics and apparently, I am more self-aware than most.

Check out the Gardner Multi Intelligences Test - the tests are at the bottom of the page and tell me how you did :-)
