Yesterday is dead Oriana Fallaci.
I thought long and hard whether or not to dedicate a post to a person and personality like that, but in the end, without entering into, I decided to spend some time thinking about it.
First
an intellectual takes on the so-called intellectual responsibility, which is what compels always scratch the veneer of superficiality and beyond the surface of the water of truth, it also promises to weigh every word and concept as it has the common weapon of the logic on the side of the handle, and can not afford to throw blows irrational in every direction.
From this point of view I do not see Oriana Fallaci, an intellectual, as in his books (the last period) I have always read a preliminary conditions, shallow and weak, well-argued (this is assuming, of course) until the end, however wacky , irrational and illogical.
Worse perhaps is that the pool of ideas in which it moves is shared by much of the "common people ignorant," and much is already in itself a good reason for not has my respect.
also
Based solely on the most recent declarations, the picture that comes out is nothing short of staggering: provocations for their own sake, delusions of violence, demand for a Reason (with a capital R) closer to the logic of metaphysical reality.
I mean, I wonder if it died of disease or if they break down during a crisis due to hydrophobic.
course should be better informed about production before the illness, which by all accounts is also the most devoid raving by violent, racist and classist, once I get a little 'time to read something from him.
