On The Perceived Hermanetics of Didactic Fundamentalism

There was a lecture yesterday I attended at Harvard called "On The Perceived Hermanetics of Didactic Fundamentalism" which was truly fascinating. The interplay and juxtaposition of an Aristotelian model of inquiry with the obvious Foucaultful and Orwellian humanism got to the heart of the thesis in no time flat. There was a professor cloaked in dead grass green Harris tweed and wide-wale corduroy from pate to pied, or better stated, head to foot, hat to paw, for all to see, who grappled in a manly way with the obviously oblique dialectic like a veritable crocodile wrangler, with far more sanguine results, than the usual carny exhibitionist. I just HAD to blog about it.
