Bringing ideas to life
I can't help but dream about a kind of criticism that would not try to judge, but bring an oeuvre, a book, a sentence, an idea to life; it would light fires, watch the grass grow, listen to the wind, and catch the sea-foam in the breeze and scatter it. It would multiply, not judgments, but signs of existence; it would summon them, drag them from their sleep. Perhaps it would invent them sometimes - all the better. All the better. Michel Foucault -

Cindy,
I, too, find myself guilty of some of the things that Taylor decries in this performance. This really brings to light a few foibles and patterns that our students and ourselves are guilty of. I passed this along on our district blog as well.
