	Humbert of Romans (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Throughout this section Humbert uses strong language: "it is essential!", "it is imperative!" This further illustrates the importance of the command of the language for the preacher.
		Humbert's main goal in his writings was to ensure that the message of the Gospel would be delivered with clarity and the dignity that the Word of God demands.
		Humbert offers three proofs for the difficulty of preaching: (1) the scarcity of good preachers, (2) the inefficiency of many carrying out the ministry, (3) and the fact that practice does not make perfect, as in other trades, because it is only the grace of God which enables the preacher to be successful.

		Humbert begins to fall into the role of a film noir protagonist, adopting the appropriate language and habits, drinking heavily and calling his gun his “chum.” Both the reader and Humbert find themselves awash in clues, but many of those clues will end up as nothing more than red herrings, or dead ends.

		In the book, Humbert is an unsympathetic man who delights in his paedophile nature and writes lengthy passages about the erotic joy he gets from having sex with underage girls.
		In the book, Humbert reaches a moment of epiphany when he hears children singing and realises that "the hopelessly poignant thing was not Lolita's absence from my side, but the absence of her voice amongst theirs".
		Only the scene at Lolita's school, when Humbert is asked by the headmistress to "instruct your daughter in the process of human reproduction" creates a flash of the wicked humour of the original.

	Vladimir Nabokov Centennial \| Martin Amis on Lolita
		Now Humbert is of course very cruel to Lolita, not just in the ruthless sine qua non of her subjugation, nor yet in his sighing intention of 'somehow' getting rid of her when her brief optimum has elapsed, nor yet in his fastidious observation of signs of wear in his 'frigid' and 'ageing mistress'.
		Humbert is surpassingly cruel in using Lolita for the play of his wit and the play of his prose--his prose, which sometimes resembles the 'sweat-drenched finery' that 'a brute of forty' may casually and legally shed (in both hemispheres, as a scandalized Humbert notes) before thrusting 'himself up to the hilt into his youthful bride'.
		And whatever it is that is wrong with Humbert, not even his short-lived mother--'(picnic, lightning)'--would claim that her son was playing with a full deck.

		Humbert had argued to be allowed to end his life legally in France because he was unable to afford the cost of transport abroad, even if it could have been arranged.
