    George Castanza (Jason Alexander) from Seinfeld. Reference is to "The Comeback" episode (1997). On my other blog, I did a post about driving pet peeves and a close call I had on the mean streets of Toronto .  I made a passing reference to the idea of “crowdsourcing” a database on boorish road behaviours. ...

    Perverse EgalitarianismAuthority Authority: 470
    Here’s an interesting piece from Global-e: One day, way back in the 20 th century, Michel Foucault, Jacques Lacan, Claude Lévi-Strauss, and Roland Barthes sat under an equatorial tree, living in their own imagined primitive past, discussing Global Studies. “What,” asked Barthes, “might the four of us ...

  • Part II: Fanon’s Descent Under the Burden of the White Gaze


    Per CaritatemAuthority Authority: 112
    The history of black people, as mentioned previously , is simultaneously erased and re-written by the white imagination.  This new history defines what a black person is —intellectually inferior, in need of a (white) master, incapable of contributing positively to (white, European) society and culture.  The ...

    the angry domeAuthority Authority: 122
    I’m really pleased with this one. I used the pattern to cut out and assemble the pieces, but the colors and embellishments were my own ideas. I made the hangers out of 20-gauge wire. A lot of the pieces are glued on with fabric glue: the collars, and the petticoat and scalloped bottom, and and the belts on the ...

    requiem for certaintyAuthority Authority: 92
    The three most important philosophers of the second half of the twentieth century were Bernard Williams, Michel Foucault, and Richard Rorty . The importance of each can in large part be attributed to the profound challenges they posed to entrenched assumptions about philosophy, its role in our lives, and its place ...

    The Dunedin SchoolAuthority Authority: 467
    It is not expected of critics as it is of poets that they should help us to make sense of our lives; they are bound only to attempt the lesser feat of making sense of the ways we try to make sense of our lives. Frank Kermode And now for the next instalment of the ongoing if irregular series on cinema ...

  • Of media narratives, truth and narratologies


    Larvatus ProdeoAuthority Authority: 505
    It would be interesting to study the role of the economics editor. In Australia, at least, those papers and media outlets which employ such a person appear to see the role as enforcing the BCA line on liberal economics, even if sometimes the actually existing BCA companies have their hands well and truly out for the ...

  • Rorty on Foucault in 1981


    Foucault blogAuthority Authority: 117
    Reviewing three new books by Foucault in 1981, Richard Rorty wrote:Russell and Wittgenstein and Heidegger and Sartre are dead, and it looks as if there are no great philosophers left alive. At the end of his book, Alan Sheridan hesitantly stakes a claim for Foucault: ‘It is difficult to conceive of any thinker ...

    My apologies for writing such a boring post after such a long period of absence. In the past few years, I was unfortunately too eager to get involved boundary skirmishes, but this has, for the most part, disappeared. I hate to say that I find myself pondering yet another boundary skirmish, yet again over the idea of ...

    It is late afternoon on Wednesday, and I have somehow managed to accomplish everything I needed to accomplish by this time.

    The Pop-Up CityAuthority Authority: 421
    Twenty years ago the Berlin Wall collapsed. In memory of this historical event, we’d like to write some about the most insane and pointless invention in the history of architecture: The Wall.
