Taking a break from narrating "Meaningness And Time" to give you a standalone essay by the author, David Chapman, which I call the Bridge essay. It will be helpful in our next few episodes, in which "Meaningness And Time" describes the counter-cultures' renegotiation of the relationship between self and society. The Bridge essay provides the urgency behind this entire audiobook podcast, and the reason I titled the podcast "Fluidity". When I first read it in 2020, that was the moment I decided I wanted to narrate David Chapman's work on my podcast. https://metarationality.com/stem-fluidity-bridge The Bridge essay references Chapman's summary of Robert Kegan's framework of adult cognitive development, which I narrated on this episode: https://fluidity.libsyn.com/developing-ethical-social-and-cognitive-competence Original text of Chapman's summary of Kegan here: https://vividness.live/developing-ethical-social-and-cognitive-competence Yesterday I encouraged David Chapman to link from the Bridge essay to an enlightening recent article by John Nerst on his blog Everything Studies (later published in Aero Magazine) clarifying the difference between postmodernism and "pseudo-pomo": https://areomagazine.com/2018/06/30/postmodernism-vs-the-pomo-oid-cluster/ Original music by Kevin MacLeod.
