An Anthology of One's Own

Larry Hanley is right to connect EduPunk back to the American Transcendentalists. As Whitman writes in “Song of Myself”–for what else is the song of the Internet Age?: You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books, You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me, You shall listen to all sides and filter them from your self.
