		<description><![CDATA[I study theories of the everyday because I believe in them, not simply because they are interesting – and I believe in them on a practical level, not simply a theoretical one. A problem arises from this: on a practical level, in my real, everyday life, what does effective political action look like?

		<description><![CDATA[In a review of Dorothy Richardson&#8217;s Interim (1919), the 5th installment in the 13-volume novel Pilgrimage, Katherine Mansfield writes:

		<description><![CDATA[So lately I&#8217;ve been reading loads of feminist theory and am slightly shocked to discover that many of these works from the 1970s still speak an undeniable truth. I&#8217;m definitely not a feminist type, at least not in the conventional sense of the word, but some of what I&#8217;ve read has roused unexpected and passionate [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=situationniste.wordpress.com&blog=2216395&post=98&subd=situationniste&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I learned something today while I was studying &#8212; first and foremost, when you are not in a very healthy headspace reading Freud can be very unsettling. In fact, it can be downright depressing at points and encourages a kind of destructive self-analysis best avoided. That said, it wasn&#8217;t entirely unenjoyable either.

Purposive: 1. Characterized by being adapted to some purpose or end; serving or tending to serve some purpose in the constitution of things. 2. Acting or performed with conscious purpose or design.

What he means is that we should forgive poets and artists for the odd mistake or inconsistency; after all, they are only human. And I think, in some way, he also meant it quite literally.
