In response to Matt:
and why, Matt, if you like to entertain your (and our) self (ves)
with wild theories, do you think that indeed Botkin was teaching
languages? Because (as Kinbote) he says so? Apparently
Wordsmith is supposed to be small, so the teachers of different
departments (even humanities and "natural" sciences) could
mix, socialize, know each other. Maybe "Zemblan" is is in fact
mathematics
(for example)? And mathematicians often have some very
large (even if superficial) erudition in other domains,
and often go crazy...
