Feel free to weigh in …

… beyond eastrod: Shakespeare and the canon — fodder for thought.



If English is your language, and you are not familiar with Shakespeare, Chaucer, and Milton, not only are you uneducated, but you also have missed out on some supreme aesthetic highs. If you're a professor arguing against Shakespeare, Chaucer, and Milton, you are a charlatan.

  1. Frank, academia is now overflowing with charlatans. That is a sad but true reality. Just check any faculty listing at any university, then check each professor's courses and publications, and you will begin to see the dirty rotten truth. I'm glad I am at the twilight of my career; otherwise, I do not think I could endure many years of what I will call the desecration of western culture.
