Grafton on the mission of the university. | Perplexed with Narrow Passages

Perplexed with Narrow Passages. Grafton on the mission of the university. September 8, 2010 in Uncategorized. In a slightly dated article about the decline of universities in Britain, Anthony Grafton defines the mission of the modern university (in bold, below) and then goes on to discuss how recent budget measures in Britain have made it next to impossible for British universities to fulfill that mission:. Are academic salaries really the main source of the pressure on the principal? A Don’s Life. My Mo...

Perplexed with Narrow Passages. January 9, 2010 in The University in Ruins. And it’s going to shock you to find out that your intuitive sense that all those workshops and seminars and faculty development thingies were a complete waste of your time, was actually a scientific fact. Are you a verbal learner or a visual learner? Had these ideas been offered up for the public good, we might. But learning styles weren’t exactly. Sold for a song. Seems unlikely, doesn’t it? Learning styles will continue to gene...

Your Guess is as Good as Anyone’s! March 12, 2010 in editing. There are few things as impenetrable as an old joke. Look at the confusion caused by one of Sir Andrew Aguecheek’s exchanges with Feste in. The feeble-witted Sir Andrew tells the fool, Feste, ‘In sooth, thou wast in very gracious fooling last night, which thou spok’st of Pigrogromitus, of the Vapians passing the equinoctial of Queubus. ’Twas very good, i’faith. I sent thee sixpence for thy lemen, hadst it? Stanley Wells and Roger Warren. In th...

March 11, 2010 in Uncategorized. This is kind of a research blog. Though hopefully not as dull as that sounds. The idea is to post bits and pieces that might not make it into my current research project (aka Book 2) or other essays – offshoots, drafts, blind alleys, or just pretty pictures. Hopefully it will get me writing. (Have you noticed that I keep saying “hopefully”? PS The title is from John Fletcher’s. The Wild Goose Chase. Early Modern at the Beinecke. Early Modern Online Bibliography. You are c...

Research into Research Funds. Just another shout into the ether. Might Be a Problem. Posted by Dance under Uncategorized. I live in a 1928 house built from a Sears kit, and while the landlady renovated the kitchen, the bathroom seems pretty close to original. So it’s got a shower conversion that consists of hanging some metal racks from the ceiling to hold a shower curtain around the clawfoot tub. I cannot see any empty screwholes on the shower curtain rack, but I am concerned. When Is the Essay Due?

the age of perfection: Here We Are: Another Morning
http://ageofperfection.blogspot.com/2015/04/here-we-are-another-morning.html
The age of perfection. Surviving academe, more or less. Tuesday, April 14, 2015. Here We Are: Another Morning. It's 8:18 am; the magnolia is in full bloom outside the living room windows. A cloudy morning. TM and Bonaventure left a few minutes ago. Milk is cooling for yoghurt on the stovetop. The dishwasher is running. I may or may not have to wash the diapers today. All is not lost. All is not lost. There are weeks yet, and then the summer! And that is a lovely view! April 14, 2015 at 5:15 PM. After eig...

The age of perfection. Surviving academe, more or less. Monday, October 14, 2013. A note on the death of my colleague. First, I'm doing fine. As I said in my last post, this wasn't someone to whom I was particularly close, although s/he was in my division (and I'll be talking to the Provost about how to staff his/her classes this afternoon). Thank you all for your condolences. None of us was responsible for what s/he did. But we could have been kinder. I. Could have been kinder. Monday, October 7, 2013.

the age of perfection: May 2014
http://ageofperfection.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
The age of perfection. Surviving academe, more or less. Monday, May 26, 2014. Unsettled (starting Week Three). I always feel a little unsettled when I'm writing. I'm a quick writer- I can produce text at lightning speed- and I mostly enjoy revising; I'm very much a process writer, so revising is where I usually figure out what my real. Idea, what a brilliant. Sentence that is, I'm so. Impostor syndrome persists into tenure, and the only way forward is to ignore the voices and write the next damn book.

The age of perfection. Surviving academe, more or less. Wednesday, August 27, 2014. So I didn't mention this, but I won a (actually, the) big Field College teaching award at Commencement last year. The payoff is a bit of money for me, half-a-bit of money for my division, and I get/have to deliver the next opening convocation address- which happened yesterday. You understand, but for the opening hoopla.) I was nervous. I was also nervous because I'd worked for a long time on my talk and therefore wanted i...
