For reasons unknown even to myself, I've added Stanley Fish's blog to my blog list. Well, I guess the reason is I intend to fill that list with all sorts of blogs I come across so I can link myself to them regularly. I'll forget to otherwise--and there's good stuff out there. On that blog, for instance, I found the following entry which, bizarrely, seems to endorse the use of a prose "translation" of Milton for teachers and students. Did I get that right? Fish endorsed this book? Oh well. I shouldn't judge the book by its blog review...
Here's the entry:http://fish.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/11/30/paradise-lost-in-prose/#more-133: browse through Fish's others if you like to see what he's thinking these days--always interesting.
