The Round Table


Wednesday night saw the final session of the reading group. A round table discussion was held from 5.00pm onwards lasting for approximately an hour and a half. Five of us had submitted draft ideas in written form as to from what point our conversation would be grounded, (see previous post for my own) and Michael introduced the session. For the first time we had a recording device available, this is an interesting and hopefully fruitful development, so many of the previous sessions arrived at what seemed very illuminating arguments, which were promptly forgotten as they arrived out of talking, rather than the normal textual analysis. I shall paste the other standpoints in when I have time and hopefully a copy of the transcript when it becomes available.
Everyone seemed enervated by the discussion and it really felt as if we had arrived at a positive outcome.
