Raison d'etre

G. C Coulton, puts forth the following reasons why ‘Piers Plowman’ is an even better index to the mind of the Middle Age than Dante’s Divine Comedy.

The very incoherence of the book is one of its main merits; the author is always thinking aloud, he reveals all his moods, untroubled by fear of self-contradiction; he mirrors faithfully the medley of ordinary human thought.

This ladies and gentlemen, is the reason why I blog.

The uncertainties, from which no thinking man (or woman) can escape in any age, drive our poet more and more inward into the sanctuary of his own soul.

Bull’s eye!

The blog tracking group Technorati said in its August State of the Blogosphere Report that a new blog is created every second around the world and that the global number of blogs is doubling every five months. That's one BIG family!
