Novelist as Visionary: On Cormac McCarthy's 'Blood Meridian'
<p>Hey! This episode is one of eight older episodes from 2020-2021 that I am re-uploading to this channel. They are episodes from back when I first got into podcasting, when I called my podcast 'Metaphor & Reality', instead of 'About Reality'. You'll see the older cover art for the 'Metaphor & Reality' version of the podcast uploaded with these eight episodes to tell them apart. I always liked these episodes, and have had them saved on my computer since discontinuing the older podcast. You'll notice these older episodes feature writers from a range of disicplines, not explicitly to do with philosophy. Moving forward I want to continue diagraming the influence I've always drawn from the broader range of human inquiry over the years, and I'm reposting these older episodes wherein I don't think twice whether the idea I want to elaborate comes from a work of fiction, poetry, history, politics, etc.</p> <p>Hope you find the ideas in these eight episodes are worth sticking around for, and that you like them as I do, and can forgive them their faults!</p>
