August 1st - Happy Birthday, Switzerland!

On intellectual expression and pleasure and why I love classical guitar

Notice the slight smile of Pepe Romero (around 5:45) as he moves towards the conclusion of this beautiful piece! 

I'd like to think that academic writing arrives at this degree of pleasure from time to time...

From being a player to an artist in the humanities?

Like so many creative activities, learning to become an artist lies in thousands of small decisions and executions, which Marty demonstrates here. 

I think there are many parallels with writing in the humanities including theology, historical research, narratology, etc. Some good food for thought!
