But you seem to have outfoxed her with references to Augustine and Chekov. Or was the Chekov an assigned reading?David Haddonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03228599724811008580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5742647201589143590.post-67675383645890713552009-04-27T13:50:00.000-07:002009-04-27T13:50:00.000-07:00Hey Brian, When ya gonna send me a copy of your pa...Hey Brian, When ya gonna send me a copy of your paper on Rousseau and the Passions. Don't you want a critique from someone with a Christian worldview? Before you send it, you do need to know that I have worked as an English teacher and as an editor and don't have much tolerance for errors of grammar and punctuation. That is, I tend to mark them up in detail.<br /><br />Regardless, Rousseau sheds a lot of that dark light Milton describes in the first stanza of "Paradise Lost." I think that dark light is a chief characteristic of the so-called "Enlightenment" of the 18th Century. If you can illuminate Rousseau at all, I'm ready to learn something new.David Haddonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03228599724811008580noreply@blogger.com
