Claude Levi Strauss 100 and passed away on Saturday I only got around to reading his obit today and was remembering many of his great ideas and how much I liked his work on myths, a fave of the Flimwell Papers for sure. I can’t tell you how much I miss discussing structuralism, symbolism, and all the other -isms I spent 4 years of my life arguing over with drunk and stoned friends in college. Now all I argue about is whether or not I use the washing machine correctly.
