So glad you have signed up to receive the For Random Learning Comes Newsletter! This is the eightieth edition. Previous editions can be found on the blog's Newsletter page. I send it out weekly, so if you don't get my email on Saturday morning, please let me know! (Check your junk and spam folders too.) *** This week I have another meta poem, focussed on the process of writing and reading as practiced in the modern day. In Treatment, I contrast this with the slower pace of "content creation" (is there a cringier expression?) in the olden days. Does a slower pace indicate more thought was put into the process in the past? Judge for yourself! It just occurred to me that the use of the word "treatment" to title my "analysis" of modern and more dated methods of writing might be a relic of my recent obsession with podcasts on Psychoanalysis, both Jungian and Freudian. My favorites at the moment are "This Jungian Life" and "Berlin Psychoanalytic." Fascinating shows both of them! I've always been interested in reading about the Vienna Fin-de-siecle period. And the interplay of art, history, symbols and the recesses of the human mind is irresistable. I find my laundry folding goes much more quickly when accompanied by these fascinating podcasts. I'm probably going to skip a few weeks coming up, so see you on the other side! That's all for this week. See you next time around! Andrea
