Alrigght Second question. This question asks us to re-read the preface and try to divulge the intention, or percieved intention-as we all of individual perspectives-concerning this essay. The analogy of the manikin is prominent, and seems to be the most blaring example of intent that I can come up with...on my own, hint hint! To me Adams talking about the Manikin is like saying that everything he has learned was made to fit a certain mold shaped largely by the society he lives in. He is trying to open the reader's eye to the fact that knowledge is taken for granted and, as you can read at naseum on my personal blog, that there is a great need for well greased cogs to run and operate the systems we create. Also Henry Adams is showing his own discovery of this as he reflects back on his education, and by his experience can we learn!
alright folks, lets hear some feedback,or maybe someone try tackling a new question. Show em what the ed-posse is made of! WORD!
