Mission


"When the day to day is a series of adventures (Spaghetti Western or otherwise), telling the story is half the fun."

This personal blog is an eclectic space for personal reflection and sharing of current interests (academic or otherwise); it isn't formatted with a formal bibliography, nor does it attempt to be or simulate a peer-reviewed journal. It is my hope that readers who are especially interested in any given post subject do investigative research of their own. The links I do provide to my sources are only an initial lily pad jump in the direction of that exciting work -- they are often secondary sources that lead back to primary sources, opening doors to new and diverse scholarship, references, sources, citations. All-inclusivity is an impossibility, especially in an informal blog space such as this one, and I do not pretend otherwise.
