Getting with the Program
Stanley Fish in The New York Times yesterday evening—
From the MLA program Fish discussed—
Above: An MLA session, “Defining Form,” led
by Colleen Rosenfeld of Pomona College
An example from Pomona College in 1968—

figures of 1968 shown above.
See Finite Geometry of the Square and Cube.
Those who prefer a literary approach to form may enjoy the recent post As Is.
(For some context, see Game of Shadows.)
