“What, after all, is the function of great literature if not to enhance
the human endeavor and raise its potential beyond what is otherwise conceivable?  As Toni Morrison said in her acceptance speech at the Nobel Prize banquet, literary artists mine the resources of language
to produce ‘illuminations none of us has dreamed of’.”

I doubt you care much that “Literature” may be better understood as glyphical narrative appealing for invocation yet.

No worries, just cohering.

I have updates on literary-conceptual work, but I want a couple of days to add at the same time more than I have today. Coming.

The death of Jürgen Habermas last weekend caused me to do some updating of my Facebook/Habermas page. Also, I spent too much time defending Habermas at a couple of Heidegger discussion pages, which seems to have been a waste of time. One venture became a blog posting: “response to ambivalent praise for Habermas.”
