Our Rhetorical Theory and Practice class is moving on to Walter Benjamin and Carl Schmitt next week.  Look for a few choice quotes in the coming days, as a presentation on Benjamin is currently in the works.

When we took these photos at Haymarket Café just before moving to Berkeley, we had no hint that we would be reading Gramsci and Benjamin in rapid succession.  From the two photos adorning the coffee house’s mantel to the sequence of our class readings, it’s a serendipitous parallelism.
