For a slightly less inaccurate rendition of Marxian "economic
materialism" & of Hegelian "historical materialism," please, of course,
always see & try like helle to understand an authority at our own
internet's vunderful WIKIPEDIA etal.
I am writing in my half-assed
perception/take/memory/interpretation/impression of the amorphous,
ambiguous phrase of perhaps what may be partially known as "cultural
history," and the squashy-buggy truth is I dunno, but it's what I
would've placed in a wide-line blue exam book if given enough time to
so hang myself.
B-T-W: Larry Summers called last night and confessed to me that he's
not all that sure that the tenured professors who hate his guts are
entirely wrong, because a president's personality is more than half to
all of the requisite functionary role.
So, Larry doesn't guess that the harmonious, non wave-maker Silberman
(sp?) from the nearby university is gonna be hired to quench the
Harvard faculty fires of revolt.
