Hawthorne: Hermaphrodite Sort of Deity

[Glenn Scheper]

> Pdf available offlist.

Could I get that PDF too? Jbor, you're such a source!

I see there's big money in a politicizing opinion:
1-889431-29-X Making it Ours: Queering the Canon
Hawthorne, Mark D. English 1998 $49.95

When I can read-in that Flange is himself Nerrissa,
a 42" standing autofellator -- I measured it is so,
then I can't let Pynchon be hauled to the gay camp.

I defended Emily Dickinson similarly on her forum with this gem:

I will split the Sapphic debate: ED fell neither heads nor tails.
Her coin stood upright, on edge: When obverse met reverse, Emily
converted her entire life force in one pulse--impulsive like the
Dirac function: infinitely great but for infinitesimal duration.
In the same instant, ED died and was reborn, ontically different,
having all the access as of Heidegger's Dasein to magic's secret.
There is only one secret that avatars and poets know--Can't tell!

Shucks, that GLBT reading list where Mark Hawthorne is listed,
they're even trying to inveigle Goethe into their conceptions.

Yours truly,
Glenn Scheper
