i’m also very irked by the exclusive use of the first edition, as though the later editions are somehow lesser. he’s effectively picking the version of the text where it’s most easy to read his thesis and just declaring it the correct version

there’s so much more to say if you aren’t attached to the idea that the book agrees with you in some way, and if you accept that it has no single canonical reading

this video could have been much better if he had sited frankenstein in its context, but because he so wants to read his own moral positions into the text it just ends up being murky

german foreign policy since the 70s has treated eastern europe as secondary to russia, and even as poland has become more wealthy and influential it still gets treated as a minor afterthought
