It interests me that the ‘vertigo’ () and ‘terror’ () that an understanding of the PLA in later tends to induce has no obvious counterpart in ’s seeming with respect to the ‘’. Hume didn’t engender that vertigo (perhaps in Kant?) despite the extremes to which his ‘sceptical’ challenge pushed us. Hume’s was a concrete piece of faculty . Witters denied us the option of snubbing that vison of the .

Time for an – I've been occupied setting up zirk.us for and people last week!

I'm a PhD student in and at the FU Berlin, writing on the status of "ethical" literary criticism after poststructuralism. I argue that Stanley and New philosophers offer a better alternative than "neo-humanist" and "deconstructive" approaches.

When I'm done I hope to dedicate more time to creative activities.

"Instead of the assertiveness and logical orderliness prized by conventional philosophical writing, Cavell offered a voluble clutter of qualifications and complications, and a kind of recklessly rigorous authenticity."
