Purpose

I decided to start this blog because I have seen how some of the economics blogs I follow act as places where people can discuss their ideas and methods, and even post initial thoughts on papers, leading to discussions that lead to more and better ideas. I think that evolutionary approaches to literary studies could benefit from having a place like this where ideas can be developed and discussed. I hope that that is what this will become. In the past one had to be in New York City or Paris to be part of a cultural evolution. Now we have the internet. We should use it.
