Hmmm...A long way off.

Still reading "Foundations Of Philosophy", and am up to Chapter 8, "Philosophy Of Mind' (p.234). Interesting stuff, and quite handy for university starting this week.

Fulcher's account is only 70 pages long, but it is full of what I was looking for in it. (Numerous instances of 'Divine Intervention' throughout, what I feel to be a key aspect of the Medieval worldview..)

Anyway..
William York Tindall-The Literary Symbol.

Wow.. The Sound And The Fury is intense. Excellent work, even if it is 'difficult'. The supplementary materials in my copy are nice too.

Now reading;
Osmar White-Conquerors' Road: An Eyewitness Report of Germany 1945.

Earlier today, I read;
David Trotter-The English Novel In History 1895-1920. (Did you know that James Joyce's Dubliners sold only 525 copies in the first year of its publication? I didn't.)

Now reading;
-W.B Yeats-The Tower (A 1928 book of poems within 'The Poems'. Contains Leda and the Swan, Among School Children and Sailing To Byzantium among others.)

-Various ENGL1015 Readings, from the Norton Anthology Of English Literature Volume Two.

The first series wasn't bad.. don't touch the wayfarer redemption with a 20 ft pole though, it's crap on a stick. Actually Sinner is good, but by Crusader it descends into utter rubbishdom.

Anyway now reading Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto
