High praise …

… The Function of Criticism in a Time of Entropy | The Russell Kirk Center. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

 “The critic,” he insists, “should be tethered to no theory, no ideology, no asphyxiating ism.” Defying our ethos of zealous politicization, Giraldi makes so bold as to declare that “Ideology is the enemy of art because ideology is the end of imagination.”
Well, that’s for sure.
