[Uroš Đurković · Rating 3 out of 5]

Informativno. (I kritički usmereno prema Fukou.)

U 19. veku smatralo se da homoseksualci ne znaju da zvižde, kao i da imaju posebnu sklonost prema zelenoj boji.

Oduvek me je zanimalo šta je (zapravo) priroda. To je jedan od onih pojmova koji toliko toga znače da svako može da ih popuni kako mu odgovara.

Ako je po antropolozima kultura 'druga čovekova priroda', šta je onda 'prva čovekova priroda'? Mislim da je odgovor na to pitanje jednako maglovit kao obrazlaganje prvog tvrđenja.

love it when Jeffrey reveals how he sees writing as a personal and complex struggle.
