I hear you about the mosquito! LOL! Thanks for the reassurances, Fell. When I first starting taking philosophy classes I was dismayed by how inaccessible it all was, particularly with regards to what's called 'Continental Philosophy.' I was able to work through this in my teaching - I discovered that I could make the conceptual novelty and complexity accessible if I worked hard enough. I've taken - or I've tried to take - the same ethos to PoN. It's all in the presentation. view post
