Walter to Donal: on what grounds do we justify the imperative of the
"must" you so benignly attribute to the pursuit of rendering public the
private and personal lives of philosophers
Isn't thoroughness an imperative for a philosopher? If this were
literature, it would have an entire niche, i.e., biographical criticism,
and would take its place among the other critical tools available to a
thorough student of literature.
