Entry: Wolfe's Howl Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/wolfes_folly#1991 Post contents: Congratulations on a well-written piece. "Senile dementia" would be a kind explanation for Wolfe's silly review. Obviously, Wolfe is jealous of Kirk's fame and genuinely puzzled why anyone would waste their time on the ridiculous rantings of a conservative curmudgeon when there are fine liberals such as himself to be read. Given the viciousness of Wolfe's uninformed attacks, I wonder if Paul's erudite response doesn't give them an undeserved dignity. By the way, I hope everyone has purchased a copy of Russello's wonderful book, "The Postmodern Imagination of Russell Kirk." It is, bar none (including admittedly my work), the most learned treatment of Kirk's thought yet. Sent at: 2008 07 24
