AB When  I  was  attending  school  in  wartime  Britain,  staples  of  the  curriculum,  along  with  cold  baths,  mathematics,  boiled  cabbage,  and  long  cross-country  runs,  were  Latin  and  French.  It  was  obvious  that  Latin  was  a  theoretical  exercise—the  Romans  were  dead,  after  all.  However,  although  France  was  clearly  visible  just  across  the  Channel,  for  years  it  was  either  occupied  or  inaccessible,  so  learning  the  French  language  seemed  just  as  impractical  and  theoretical  an  exercise.  It  was  unthinkable  to  me  and  my  teachers  that  I  would  ever  put  it  to  practical  use—that  French  was  a  language  to  be  spoken.
