[MD] Teachings from the American Earth

[ARLO J BENSINGER JR]

Ant,

Just noticed this too, from the Frye passage.

[Arlo quoted earlier]
"That is, the study of recurring structural patterns grants students an
emancipatory distance from their own society, and gives them a vision of a
higher human state "the Longinian sublime" that is not accessible directly
through their own experience, but ultimately transforms and expands their
experience, so that the poetic model becomes a model to live by." (on Frye's
"Double Vision")

Doesn't this sound like a description of the social and intellectual levels?
Including the word "emancipatory"? Notice, interestingly, how it ends not as we
would expect it read, but with the word "poetic". I'd envision the expected
word to be "scientific" (from this passage out of context), but its not.
Interesting (to me anyways).
