      Again I see the comparison with religion. I think it depends very much on whether you want to defend sources or focus on impact.

      Well, that depends how faithfully the sources have been represented. Actually, Derrida on Nietzsche is very interesting here.

      How faithfully the sources have been represented matters to those concerned abt defending the sources. What did Muhammad really mean?

      But when some draw upon sources to legitimise present-day actions, it matters a lot how faithfully they have represented them.

      To what, exactly? If they're not representing them faithfully, will the problems go away?

      It could change considerably the grounds for their legitimation. As when sources turn out to be forgeries/fakes.

      This is far less important than which ideas caught on, how they were developed and how they are manifested now for my purposes.

      You will never be wrong saying cultural phenomena come from a complex range of enmeshed ideas

          No, but in this case it is vital to make more of other historical, political and economic factors.

          If I have an issue with your essay, I think it deals too lightly with wider context.

          Then write something that does that. I already pushed the editor from 3000 words to 4000.

          There really isn't a need to be so defensive with a sympathetic if not wholly uncritical view.

          I'm sorry if I seem defensive but that is the reality. I can't cover everything in 4000 words & ppl will always want diffferent focuses.

          All I can do when they say this is encourage them to write the bits they feel are missing & then I'll retweet them if I agree or respond.

          Someone wanted me to look at art & architecture more. Someone wanted me to include right-wing identity politics, someone wanted more Marxism
