Teaching

This morning at Berkeley my argumentative thinking/writing intensive is taking up an abbreviated tour of propositional analysis, formal and informal fallacies. I fear my students will be a wee bit terrorized by the demands of this analytic mode and a flood of new terminology, but it is one of the few times I really get to flex the muscles I acquired from my first graduate degree from the long, long ago, from an analytic philosophy department, prior to my travels in rhetoric and literary theory.
