...but a socially and historically constituted, and thus changeable, reality."
(Seyla Benhabib: Critique, Norm and Utopia, p47.)
Saying of the weekend: Hippie gave me a note, Hegel a headache. But luckily there's always some GG bringing a smidgen of a zippety-pow. Possibly I am coming close to what a legend has told: someone once studied philosophy in our university and even after decades has not yet recovered from it. A co-philosopher put it well the other day: the experience of reading our books is always on the edge of uncomfortability. What then makes us continue? It must be that zippety-pow-thing. However frustrating it is, we know that studying a tad of Hegel will do us good.
