Thanks! Another thing to watch on this Youtube feed we can watch on our tv because of the Roku beeber. Earlier today we were watching science videos from the “Smarter Every Day” presenter.

Barron is great as usual. Interrogate a text. Ask not just "WHAT does this mean?" but as a serious initial investigation, "HOW does his mean?"

Is this a rant? A diplomatic communique? A booklong parable? A head-spinning vision? "Last night I had the strangest dream?" A court history? A political satire? A love poem? A prison letter? A would-be suicide note? Song lyrics? And what kind of song: a marching song for the foot soldiers? A suitor's plea? Written to chastise your slutty daughters? To taunt your thuggish king? To to shame your faithless countrymen?

You can't know 'what' it means until you know 'how' it means.
