Thursday classes

In History of Philosophy II today talking about Husserl and Phenomenology I brought up two examples. One was Van der Leeuw (this link is to a newer edition) and the other was Peter Berger and Sociology of Knowledge As an example of the socially constructed reality I brought up elements of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series - "the journey from the mind of a single mother to a global media franchise" and the quiz question was who do you think the house elves best represent? Would you support SPEW? For Introduction to Philosophy today we moved on to Hegel and for some reason I thought, hey, why not? Let's ask the same question! Would you support SPEW?
