The Humanities

Cicero used to speak of the stupidity of the humanities. Identical with the studiousness of the humanities. With the stupefaction of the humanities. With the idiocy of the humanities.

 

All that’s left of the humanities is pathos. Oh that ol’ humanities feeling!

 

The humanities’ last gasp: on our nights of drinking. The last humanities: on our nights at Trillians.

 

Trillians: it was our version of the university. The counter uni. The shadow uni. The deep drinking uni. The university of Trillians.
