Entry: The Kirk Wars Continue Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_kirk_wars_continue#2413 Post contents: This is an outstanding defense of Kirk's thought by a young scholar who I suspect may not himself be an unqualified advocate of the thinker he is boldly defending. That said,one may wonder whether any of Dan's wisdom would register with Professor Wolfe. One might even ask whether it would pay for Wolfe to rethink any of his baseless charges against Kirk. As an successful American intellectual it would not be in his interest to present a fairer assessment of his subject. I doubt that TNR's editors were looking for such a balanced treatment when they accepted Wolfe's hatchet job. Sent at: 2008 07 24
