	Acephalous line - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An acephalous or headless line is a line in a poem which does not conform to its accepted metre, due to the first syllable's omission.
		Acephalous lines are usually deliberate variations in scansion, but this is not always obvious.
		Robert Wallace argues in his Meter in English that the term acephalous line seems "pejorative", as if criticising the poet's violation of scansion, but this view is not widely held among critics [[1].

		The immediate provocation for the thread was a particularly unfortunate slip of the tongue by talk show host David Lenihan, who, apparently inadvertantly, used a racial epithet in an on-air discussion of Condoleeza Rice.
		The discussion at Acephalous revolves, among other things, around the issue of to what degree a mistake like this should be considered a “Freudian slip” - that is, a slip of the tongue that signifies something meaningful about the speaker - in this case, latent racism.
		The second is the contested issue of whether psychoanalytic approaches have taken seriously the question of what evidence would be required to falsify or force a rethink of core concepts within the theory.

	Dissertation Abstract
		Further, it shows that the trajectory of historical change in acephalous societies is not always toward the formation of narrow and centralized political hierarchies.
		People living under acephalous structures can innovate, invent, adapt, and provide for their own populations without subjecting themselves to the rule of elites.
		In sum, acephalous societies such as that of the Balanta have long forged their own histories, but they have done so under conditions that were not of their own choosing.

		I did so not from the rank vanity I'm barely six centimeters (if even) above, but because in the comments to this item I learned that the ratio of spam logs to actual blogs is 28:1.
		Pace this, I wondered how many of the blogs which link here are spam blogs, and whether that could account for the fact that if you look at Technorati's Acephalous page, you learn that I have 695 links from 264 blogs and that 954 blogs link to me.
