You forced me into a long delayed encounter with Edelman's work, for example, and helped me grope (remember how you used that Chaucerian word?) for a vocabulary for moving away from it towards a more affirmative practice of queer theory ... and theory generally.Jeffrey Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17346504393740520542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21165575.post-64683232818630447672007-05-14T19:27:00.000-04:002007-05-14T19:27:00.000-04:00Michael, as you know the blog is always open to yo...Michael, as you know the blog is always open to you.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for your intervention -- it's been great!<BR/><BR/>love<BR/>JJJeffrey Cohenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17346504393740520542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21165575.post-5286647496159643032007-05-14T19:16:00.000-04:002007-05-14T19:16:00.000-04:00Jeebus, M O'R.

I can honestly say that if you had not shown up here when you did I would not, at this moment, possess a coherent sense of exactly where I want to go with certain avenues of scholarship and with BABEL. Your take on queer studies is amazing and humane and loving, and those who don't like neologisms be damned. You're the poet of queer studies as event-to-come. Please keep lurking and commenting, and I hope, wherever you are, thriving.Eileen Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13756965845120441308noreply@blogger.com
