Merry talks of “modern facts” & my brain decides now to ask, “but what even is a ‘fact’?” & all I can think about is E.H. Carr talking about “fishing for facts” & now my brain is unhelpfully making “bob bob bob” thought-noise. I’m also thinking of academic areas where postmodernism isn’t a thing, no one has given me a definition of “fact” & this was not the existential dilemma I expected when I started this book.
