Botanical Shakespeares: The Racial Logic Of Plant Life In Titus Andronicus, Jean E. Feerick Feb 2009

Botanical Shakespeares: The Racial Logic Of Plant Life In Titus Andronicus, Jean E. Feerick

Jean Feerick

The early modern epistemic overlap between plant and person, Feerick’s article demonstrates, can expand critical work on early modern race both in and beyond Shakespearean drama. It centers upon an analysis of Shakespeare’s Titus Andronicus, a play that brings plant bodies and human bodies into dizzying dramatic collision. In contrast to critics of the Enlightenment who have argued that the drive to classify plants into phyla and species helped to shape epistemologies of human difference, both gendered and racialized, this article works backward, examining how the premodern logic of botany helped to constitute a different racial idiom. During this …

The Believing Game Or Methodological Believing, Peter Elbow Dec 2008

The Believing Game Or Methodological Believing, Peter Elbow

Peter Elbow

The kind of thinking most widely honored is often called "critical thinking." I call it "the doubting game" because the premise is that we should test ideas by subjecting them to the discipline of doubt. It's a valuable and necessary methodology for good thinking because it trains us to find hidden flaws in ideas that sound attractive or that are widely assumed to be true.

In this essay I suggest a different kind of thinking that is equally important but little honored or even noticed. I call it the believing game because the premise is that we should test ideas …
