   • 1876, Charles Bradlaugh, Can Miracles be proved possible?:

     No two human beings are born with the same perceptive ability, or exercise it within the same range, or have the same ability in memorying these perceptions, or the same accuracy of memory, or precisely the same ability in comparing their perceptions.

     The corrective memorying signaled here is both an attempt at reclamation and redefinition: to call "her beloved, / Which was not beloved" is an act of renaming as the memory body that is claimed as the beloved is rescripted, reimagined, and reexperienced as a body constitutionally different than it was some time before.

     In moving the subterrain of inquiry, the temporal scales of our memorying and becoming (Grosz 1999) of wild, alien, uncanny and irreal experiences of the vital environments of vibrant nature are worth speculating about for further inquiry into both the enablements and constraints of those body~space relations of children's dromospherical timescapes with the Anthrop/obscene.
