Trudeau's "Story Theory of Truth" and "Diamond Theory of Truth"
may be illustrated by two books I encountered during 1974 . . .

"If you have built castles in the air,
your work need not be lost;
that is where they should be.
Now put the foundations under them.”
— Henry David Thoreau
A recent view of the approximate former location of Morrell's Bar
in Warren, Pa. (See the previous post, Sunday morning's Bar Exam) —
See too remarks on a fictional Tim Horton here and in a 2012
film review from a publication at the University of Cambridge —
"Although the use of their work for good versus evil
was the concern for three of the main protagonists,
for one character – Dr Tim Horton – the bigger question
was one of academic and intellectual morality."
See as well this journal on the above article's date — November 20, 2012.
This post is in memory of an English church musician whose
death was noted here yesterday evening in a post titled
"The Particulars of Rapture," a phrase from Wallace Stevens.
Sir Philip Ledger, who died on Sunday, was a
"church musician who produced magical settings
of carols," according to The Telegraph RSS feed.
It is not clear what the Telegraph meant by "magical settings."
Perhaps the phrase "his settings of carols" in his obituary refers
to the annual service of Nine Lessons and Carols at Cambridge,
where he was for a time director of music at King's College.
If so, the settings would be the Lessons, readings from the Bible
(a "ledger," in the sense defined below). Such readings should
not be confused with notions from the world of Harry Potter.
Examples: The Lessons from last Christmas in Cambridge.
