Your turn.
I don't see it as a matter of "Good" or "Bad," but I believe it is a fair reading of our posts here the last few months. Perhaps if Gore was President, it would be the opposite.
neither the versions of pomo I like nor my personal approach to things takes that position. Again, read Rorty.
I have been responding to you, and I have read what I could of Rorty on line. What I am getting from both of you is, "don't make me define my terms!" Rorty states that he wants to use different definitions for how we should deal with our private life vs how we deal with our public life.
>>>Rorty often makes the case that we live in two worlds: the public and the private. In these circumstances, we have many options for private projects, unfettered by the state, in language, art, and writing, as well as the opportunity to refine our ideas, metaphors, and methods of discourse in public arenas.<<<

I find that practically everyone in the "PoMo" world wants to keep things as vague as possible, so as to be able to wiggle off the hook. |
