Reading wild, seriously: Confessions of an epistemophiliac

Lynn Worsham University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee

Abstract

For me ideology is a kind of vast membrance enveloping everything. We have to know that this skin exists even if it encloses us like a net or like closed eyelids. We have to know that, to change the world, we must constantly try to scratch and tear it. We can never rip the whole thing off, but we must never let it stick or stop being suspicious of it. It grows back and you start again. Helene Cixous
