Very happy to share that my article in the new issue of #Leviathan is out! It discusses Melville's Clarel, and the possibility of reading a philosophy of secularization at work in the poem. Many thanks to Melville scholars far and near for their friendship and support!🐋

Goodbye to misty Mystic and to sunny New Bedford, and so long to the jolly crew of fellow Mellvilleans! It's been a blast, as always...
Thank you for these incredible conferences throughout the years!

How come is there no paper out there on Robert Zemeckis's "Death Becomes Her" (1992) and Hawthorne's "Dr. Heidegger's Experiment" 🧐🔮(also, would have loved to see Bruce Willis in an adaptation of the latter 🙏)
