Anybody and Everybody,
I'm interested in critically approaching CoL 49 via the resources (that
means you) on this group. If anybody is interested in any degree of
discussion, contribution, thematic treatment, all coupled with an
occassional 'relatively synchronous group reading' of the text, please let
me know and we can set something up. Since most, if not all of us, have
read/taught CoL 49 before, I think that's our most concrete launching
point. It's been my experience that group readings fall apart for a variety
of reasons, which I'm sure many of you know as well. However, given the
rich resources we possess here, we really have no excuses. A relatively
minute amount of your attention on one portion of text can yield wonderful
conclusions for dozens of readers. I'm thinking we'll begin with a
necessarily wide orbit and tighten and spawn new orbits as we can/desire.
Any feedback or initial refinements to the proposition?
Regards,
Bradley.
