no no no no no. wrong! i don't have disdain for the humanities-- i LOVE the humanities. but i think the humanities have been betrayed by the caste of professional academics as a whole-- not (again) as individuals but as a whole, with their power struggles, their infernal system of rewards, and their ghettoization.

i do look forward to the day when the humanities are sane again. holy fuck, where is the new auerbach or the new george steiner-- probably unable to get tenure because he/she didn't present in 6 conferences a year.
