is he the only professor of literary criticism who hasn't completely bent over a table for the ludicrous, hateful Resentment School of the left?

Helen Vendler is another one who focuses on the aesthetic qualities of poetry.

Thanks, the Harvard Bloom, eh?

Bloom in 1995. To hear what he has to say about the SJW nonsense now would be something.

She seems like a great critic, but she's about as old as Bloom

How can we save the humanities?

What happens when critics like Bloon and Vendler die? The floodgates of Toni Morrison shit are opened?

Relegate philosophical and literary degrees to private liberal arts colleges. They need to be quarantined from big-city youth.

It's not like he's dead. You can send him an email or something

I imagine he doesn't want to hear about it. It'll probably just make him even more depressed.

That video I linked was in 1995. Imagine how he feels now.

Plenty of libcucks who somehow even infiltrated this glorious bastion but the profs in my department aren't tards. Logic and fair argument reign supreme, one history professor (from UChicago no less) even constantly berates my generation for its thin-skinnedness, penchant for empty twitter revolutions, and overemphasis on having one's feelings appeased. He's a gem.
This question still stands. How indeed.
Personally work slowly. This is a reflection of the greater separation of the right and left (new right and new left, neocons and whatever the new libcucks call themselves) in the country. This was caused probably first by the left which caused Gingrich to react extremely.
It does not matter who started it. What matters is cleaning up this embarrassing mess.
I am a conservative but cannot stand the Gingrich types and what he did. Obviously I also cannot stand the direction the far left has gone, as abortions of logic are its norm.
Criticize it whenever you can, careful tending to even handedness. The far left and far right both are to blame and both need to burn to the ground in order to be re-reborn. "The Old Left" and "Old Right."
This SJW bull is the most ubiquitous filth from the left, and the right are known for their fear-mongering in regards to the middle east and pretty much everything. Both are hard line retarded positions.
I feel if we grass roots it, we can do it. Genuine, sound ideas are self-evident and spread naturally.
Once again, I'm safe in my private school so I know nothing of the real damage. It seems insufferable in cities, for example UIC (University of Illinois at Chicago).
If we call out the cry-bully logic for the sewage it is while also maintaining the retarded stuff the right does, we might have a shot.
Meanwhile the big boy politics play on as normal because at the end of the day, reality is reality.
The twitter/sjw/feelings bubble of delusion permeating collegiate life is an ongoing issue though.
One last thing- Obama actually addressed this recently in a talk. It was very good- he called out liberal babies who were afraid of conservative ideas so they wouldn't let Republicans talk. He was fair in that.
I'm in college so I have the luxury of getting on my soap box as often as I can, adjusting for the appropriate tone to take/etc, obviously.
