Another twist

Just as I was settling down to read about Socratic wonder, as part of my hermeneutic turn, an email arrived from a colleague in Gothenburg with a link to Bruce Nussbaum's latest blog post.  For those interested in creative capitalism, and who isn't these days, he recommended, among other readings,  Clifford Geertz's Deep play: Notes on the Balinese cockfight,  and Goffman's Frame Analysis.  I'd forgotten about Geertz's wonderful piece (no pun intended) and it was a pleasure to read it again. Maybe there is hope for me yet, if I pursue this avenue towards deeper understanding of my earlier work.  It's worth a try -- so long wonder! At least for now!
