"In one paper on Dostoevsky, [Plath] begins, as if apologetically, 'I would like to make an explanation of my personal biases and ideas which do not properly belong in the main body of the paper.' The 'personal biases' that interest her are striking. 'It was this conviction of oblivion after death, this disbelief in God and immortality,' she writes, in an academic manner, 'that reassured me when I' (and here I experienced a wave of nausea) ' attempted, after two months of despair and reasoned premeditation, to commit suicide.' This introduction to her paper (which she herself calls an 'extraneous personal preface') is most remarkable for not having been remarked upon. No note in the margin from a professor. No criticism of the method. No praise of honesty. Nothing. There seems to be no protocol for this type of criticism."
