A good read, like everything he wrote.<BR/><BR/>Hey Bird,flying jewel of the air. Uh huh...I does like the fact that Twain came at Joan wifout pre-conceived notions. He did years of research in the oriiginal documents--seein' how's it was a court case they's still volumes of records--a good read.<BR/><BR/>But youse confusin' me wif that idea that reality is socially constructed<BR/>--I am one of those who thought reality WAS the given thang. What'cha mean? Does you mean an alternate *interpretation* of reality is only asocial construction?<BR/><BR/>Isn't reality what is *given* thus not in same category as supposition or opinion? (That water is wet, not dry is a statement of reality, right?)Aunty Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868780211706866610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23068833.post-1146339771208505262006-04-29T12:42:00.000-07:002006-04-29T12:42:00.000-07:00perhaps twain was able to do a fine job on the bio...perhaps twain was able to do a fine job on the biography of joan because he was an agnostic...<BR/><BR/>hmmm... i can easily see the trinity discussion morphing into a back porch discussion - i.e., when we debate, we see ourselves and our point of view and expression one way, often others see it another, and then somewhere in all of that is the reality.<BR/><BR/>of course, reality is socially-constructed; it's not a given and the truth of it is always debatable - interpretable.Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05048533325118829436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23068833.post-1146339391253812242006-04-29T12:36:00.000-07:002006-04-29T12:36:00.000-07:00/bark bark barkgreat post. that glimpse of the thr.../bark bark bark<BR/><BR/>great post. that glimpse of the three together is so rare and fragile -it slips away like a shadow you saw out of the corner of your eye, but when you tried to look at it straight on, you couldnt see it. but you had an idea of the possibility.<BR/><BR/>twain was courageous and tricky. i have never read the joan of arc story but I can imagine how it is treated by the great man - and written under his own name??<BR/>interesting<BR/><BR/>/grrrrrrrrrrrrrsparringK9https://www.blogger.com/profile/08031137344229440004noreply@blogger.com
