Survival on intellectual terms means resisting the idea of “news” as a pathway to “authoritative common ground.” Kind of like asking “which music is best” and then insisting that “best” must be current Top 40.

News is necessary but not sufficient
Without it intellectual life is reduced to math and philosophy
