Everett Wheeler seems to have invented the word "Lehnstuhlfeldherr" just so he could throw it at me in his obscenely nasty review of my bookhttps://twitter.com/NatalieZed/status/1391150397922889739 …

In person? That is a story that needs telling!
E. Wheeler taught a course on Roman Warfare (split grad/undergrad) at UNC while I was finishing up my classes and preparing for my prospectus. At my advisor's advice, I used the opportunity to demo out a beta version of my dissertation's thesis to get feedback.

define "demo out"

Provide a demonstration version. I used the course's term paper to show my method in a more limited format (just Romans and Macedonians, just heavy infantry kit) to show the method could work and get response.

To be fair, the critiques were very helpful in thinking about the prospectus and the project. If there is a weakness in your argument, Wheeler will find it. But those critiques were delivered - to my face - in the traditional Wheeler manner.

I honestly find myself torn by Wheeler. On the one hand, his manner is very brusque and occasionally his critiques have a harshness I think steps over the line. On the other hand, there is a reward to be had for tolerating that brusqueness, given his mastery of the topics.

Did you make sure you to mention every single thing he has ever written while you did it?
