(urth) Attending Daedalus

[Tristan Davenport]

I haven't read Attending Daedalus, but from your description it sounds like 
the kind of everything-is-political criticism that's fashionable in PoMo 
academia these days.  I believe the same kind of thing has been said about 
the New Testament, among other works.
