How to find hope in these times? I spoke with political scientist Loren Goldman about the principle of political hope: why we should have hope, how to have hope in dark times, and how political hope differs from naïve optimism, faith in progress, or passive reliance on a hidden logic that will save us in the end. Goldman, who is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania, is the author of The Principle of Political Hope (Oxford University Press, 2023), where he reveals hope to be an indispensable aspect of much continental and American political thought, especially in the works of Immanuel Kant, John Dewey, Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, Ernst Bloch, Richard Rorty, and others. Our conversation on Goldman's study of hope ends with three concrete lessons to counter hopelessness, cynicism, and despair. Learn more about your ad choices.

Angst, Aufregung, Ärger - kurz vor der Wahl kochen politische Debatten hoch. Deswegen habe ich ein paar Impulse aus der Philosophie dabei, die es dir ermöglichen sollen, dich gut zu reflektieren und zu positionieren. Folgende kunterbunte Zitate habe ich aus der Philosophiegeschichte ausgewählt: - Das "Ich weiß, dass ich nicht weiß" von Platons Sokrates kann uns dabei helfen, unsere eigenen Grenzen einzusehen - vielleicht hilft das der gemeinsamen Suche nach Weisheit, sorgt für weniger Rechthaberei und fördert sachliche Argumentation. - Die Naturgesetze, die Thomas Hobbes in seinem Leviathan entdeckt: "Suche Frieden und halte ihn ein" und "Was ihr wollt, dass euch andere tun sollen, das tut ihnen" können uns daran erinnern, dass wir für ihre Umsetzung unsere eigenen Leidenschaften hinterfragen und das Gemeinwohl priorisieren sollten. Außerdem erinnert das Bild des Leviathan daran, dass staatliche Gewalt eine Superkraft ist, weswegen wir gründlich überlegen sollten, welchen Personen wir zutrauen können, sie zu repräsentieren - weil sie die Naturgesetze mit auf die Agenda nehmen! - Das Gedankenexperiment von Markus Gabriel "Die Nazi-Maschine" ist eine aktuelle Version der Gerechtigkeitskonzeption, zu der wir alle in der Lage sind und die John Rawls mit seinem "Schleier des Nicht-Wissens" demonstrierte. Wenn wir einen inneren moralischen Kompass haben, der uns einen gerechten Zustand denken lässt, wissen wir auch, was es dazu braucht: Die abstrakte Gleichheit von Menschen als Menschen. - Und zuletzt das Vorwort von Ernst Bloch zu seinem dreibändigen Werk "Das Prinzip Hoffnung", das behauptet, Hoffnung ließe sich lernen und dies sei nötig, weil es uns weit macht und aktiv werden lässt. Also um politisch eine Gesellschaftsordnung zu ermöglichen, in der jeder eine gute Stellung haben kann, sollten wir zweierlei mit zur Wahlurne bringen: unsere wache Vernunft und ein hoffendes Herz nehmen!

Kath-Akademie Archiv: „Joachim Kaiser und Michael Krüger“ (Hördauer: 84 Minuten) Joachim Kaiser (1928-2017) blickte am 2. Dezember 2008 in der Katholischen Akademie in Bayern gemeinsam mit dem Verleger und Autor Michael Krüger (geb. 1943) zurück auf seine über 50-jährige Schaffenszeit und ein Gesamtwerk, das seinesgleichen sucht.Seine Altersgruppe, die von ihm so bezeichneten „Fünfundvierziger“, hat nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg die Bundesrepublik geprägt wie keine folgende Generation.Kaiser spricht von ganz großem Glück, das sie gehabt hätten. „Denn alles Misslingen hat seine Gründe, aber alles Gelingen sein Geheimnis.“ Er war einer der einflussreichsten deutschsprachigen Musik-, Literatur- und Theaterkritiker seiner Zeit. Seit 1959 arbeitete er als leitender Redakteur im Feuilleton der Süddeutschen Zeitung; von 1977 bis 1996 war er Professor für Musikgeschichte an der Hochschule für Musik und Darstellende Künste in Stuttgart.2009 übergab er sein umfangreiches Privatarchiv dem Deutschen Literaturarchiv in Marbach am Neckar als Vorlass. Neben Briefen von Theodor W. Adorno und Alfred Andersch enthält es Korrespondenz mit Ingeborg Bachmann, Ernst Bloch und Heinrich Böll.   Katholische Akademie in BayernKardinal Wendel HausMandlstraße 23, 80802 München Realisation Uwe Kullnick

Sessant'anni fa - nel 1964 - Hannah Arendt pubblicava La banalità del male. Il saggio della filosofa tedesca, nato dal resoconto del processo ad Adolf Eichmann, continua a suscitare riflessioni profonde sul significato della responsabilità individuale e collettiva, soprattutto in un mondo dove il male può ancora manifestarsi nella sua forma più insidiosa: la normalità. Moby Dick prende spunto da quel libro per esplorare non solo l'eredità delle idee della Arendt, ma anche come il concetto di responsabilità si declini nel nostro presente. In un mondo in cui l'adesione passiva a sistemi e ideologie può avere conseguenze devastanti, come possiamo promuovere un pensiero critico capace di opporsi al male, nella sua forma quotidiana e silenziosa?Ospiti in diretta – al microfono di Lina Simoneschi Finocchiaro - nell'ora centrale del programma, la filosofa Roberta De Monticelli (già professoressa ordinaria di Filosofia della Persona all'Università Vita Salute San Raffaele di Milano), autrice di testi come Al di qua del bene e del male. Per una teoria dei valori (Einaudi 2015) e Umanità violata. La Palestina e l'Inferno (Laterza 2024). Laura Boella che è stata professoressa ordinaria di Filosofia Morale e di Etica dell'ambiente presso il Dipartimento di Filosofia dell'Università Statale di Milano. Ha dedicato numerosi studi e traduzioni a vari pensatori fra cui i Ernst Bloch, volgendosi successivamente al pensiero femminile del ‘900. Ha studiato a fondo e tradotto in italiano Hannah Arendt a cui ha dedicato il libro Hannah Arendt. Un difficile umanesimo (edito da Feltrinelli nel 2020) . Tra le su numerose pubblicazioni citiamo almeno Il coraggio dell'etica. Per una nuova immaginazione morale (Raffaello Cortina 2012) e Empatie L'esperienza empatica nella società del conflitto (Raffaello Cortina 2018).Accanto a lei, lo storico e saggista Gabriele Nissim, fondatore e presidente di Gariwo, il Giardino dei Giusti, e autore – fra l'altro- di Il bene possibile. Essere giusti nel proprio tempo (Utet 2018) e Auschwitz non finisce mai. La memoria della Shoah e i nuovi genocidi (Rizzoli 2022). Entrambi ci guideranno in una riflessione sulla dignità umana e sull'etica della responsabilità.Infine, nell'ultima mezz'ora del programma ospiteremo il teologo e saggista Vito Mancuso, che ci parlerà in particolare del dolore innocente che lui stesso definisce «un dolore senza dolo, senza colpa, che non è conseguenza di atti negativi posti dal soggetto, e quindi non dovuto, e quindi ingiusto». Vito Mancuso – fra le sue numerose pubblicazioni - ha dedicato al tema un libro intitolato proprio Il dolore innocente. L'handicap, la natura e Dio (Garzanti terza edizione 2023). Il saggio affronta il problema dell'handicap rivolgendosi alla filosofia e alla teologia per trovare il senso umano dell'handicap, il messaggio di cui è portatore, analizzando le risposte date dalle grandi religioni mondiali.

In dieser Folge von „Gelassen älter werden“ taucht Bertram zusammen mit der Philosophin Gerda Marie Adenau in die faszinierende Welt von Chronos und Kairos ein. Gemeinsam erkunden sie, wie diese alten Zeitkonzepte uns dabei helfen können, das Alter mit mehr Gelassenheit und Lebensfreude zu gestalten.Hauptpunkte:Chronos steht für die messbare, lineare Zeit, während Kairos den richtigen Moment und besondere Augenblicke repräsentiert.Im Alter wird die Wahrnehmung von Kairos-Momenten immer wichtiger und kann zu mehr Lebensqualität führen.Die Reflexion über vergangene Kairos-Momente öffnet uns für neue Chancen und stärkt das Vertrauen in zukünftige, sinnvolle Erlebnisse.Eine neue Perspektive auf die Zeit im Alter: Die Vergangenheit liegt vor uns, die Zukunft hinter uns – ein Weg zu mehr Gelassenheit.Zitate:„Kairos steht für all die inspirierenden Momente im Leben, die Schönheit, die Erkenntnis, die besonderen Augenblicke. Und all diese besonderen Momente, die das Leben neu machen.“ - Gerda Marie Adenau„Vergangenheit und Zukunft zum ewigen Jetzt fallen zu lassen.“ - Gerda Marie AdenauZum Weiterlesen:Werke von Hannah Arendt, Martin Heidegger, Ernst Bloch und Michel Foucault zum Thema ZeitAntike griechische Mythologie: Geschichten über Chronos und KairosWie kannst du mehr Raum für Kairos-Momente in deinem Leben schaffen?

Today we have Jonathan Greenaway on to talk about his new book A Primer on Utopian Philosophy: An Introduction to the Work of Ernst Bloch. We discuss where Bloch came from, the uses of utopian thinking in politics, and more. Enjoy!

Ernst Bloch is probably going to be unknown to many listeners, but, according to Horror Vanguard's Jon Greenaway, he's one of the most overlooked and important philosophers of the 20th century. We talk about what Utopia means and what it can mean now that it seems further away than ever. Music by Necrot.

Jon's new book is out! A Primer on Utopian Philosophy is out now! So, we thought the best way to talk about utopia was to also talk about Faust!

Ziel der Veranstaltungsreihe "Hoffnungslos? Über Krise und Utopie" im Ernst-Bloch-Zentrum Ludwigshafen sei es, nach einer konkreten Utopie und nach Handlungsoptionen zu fragen, sagt die Mitorganisatorin Natalie Kunter im SWR2 Gespräch.

In this episode, we return to the work of Ernst Bloch and his theory concerning “aesthetic genius” and the possibility of the red sublime. Bloch attempts to construct a Marxist account of art that can explain how it is possible for aesthetic objects to provoke experiences of beauty and sublimity long after the historical conditions of their genesis have passed. Bloch thinks certain artworks contain a utopian surplus that beckons for a not-yet existing classless society. In other words, Bloch thinks we can inherit the knowledge of the real possibility of communism from the history of class domination and catastrophe. Join us as we try to make sense of these claims, dunk on the idea of art as “resistance,” and even try (in vain) to get Gil to experience the sublime!leftofphilosophy.com | @leftofphil References:Ernst Bloch, “Ideas as Transformed Material in Human Minds, or Problems of an Ideological Superstructure (Cultural Heritage) (1972)” in The Utopian Function of Art and Literature, trans.

When Hitler invaded Warsaw in the fall of 1939, hundreds of thousands of civilians were trapped in the besieged city. The Rebbe Joseph Schneersohn, the leader of the ultra-orthodox Lubavitcher Jews, was among them. When word of his plight went out, a group of American Jews initiated what would ultimately become one of the strangest—and most miraculous—rescues of World War II. And this is the incredible but true story that Bryan Mark Rigg tells in The Rabbi Saved by Hitler's Soldiers: Rebbe Joseph Isaac Schneersohn and His Astonishing Rescue (UP of Kansas, 2016). Amid the chaos and hell of the emerging Holocaust, a small group of German soldiers shepherded Rebbe Schneersohn and his Hasidic followers out of Poland. In the course of the daring escape—traveling by train to Berlin, rerouted to Latvia and Sweden, and carried by ship through U-boat-infested waters to America—the Rebbe would learn a shocking truth. The leader of the rescue operation, the decorated Wehrmacht soldier Ernst Bloch, was himself half-Jewish, and a victim of the rising tide of German anti-Semitism. Perhaps even more remarkable were the central roles of Admiral Wilhelm Canaris, head of the Nazi military intelligence service, and of Helmuth Wohlthat, chief administrator of Göring's Four Year Plan. Pursuing every lead, amassing critical evidence, pulling together all the pieces of what could well be a political thriller, Rigg reconstructs the Rebbe's improbable escape, and tells a harrowing story about identity and moral responsibility. His book is the definitive account of an extraordinary episode in the history of World War II. Drora Arussy, EdD, MA, MJS, is the Senior Director of the ASF Institute of Jewish Experience.

Ready to peel back the layers of the complex world of Marxism? Brace yourselves for a spirited exploration of the 'warm' and 'cold' streams of Marxism, as Chris N, Jason N, and I traverse the arcane terrain of political determinism, volunteerism, and the revolutionary ideas that underpin Ernst Bloch's theory.  We'll grapple with the works of Alvin Gouldner and Enzo Traversoc as well decoding inherent contradictions, and dissect the nuanced humanist and deterministic tendencies within Marxism.We'll also dive into the stormy waters of Marxism's relationship with liberalism, and the philosophical and scientific tension that brews within its core. How has Karl Marx's posthumously published work influenced the interpretation of Marxism? We'll tackle this, and delve deeper into the roles of Engels and Bernstein in molding the understanding of this theory. We also dare to explore the current state of the left, its flirtation with liberalism, and dissect the rise of Bernie Sanders against the backdrop of a faltering labor movement.Finally, we'll confront the thorny issues of socialism's relevance in today's society. Will Marxism's claim to shape the world ever be fully realized? We'll sift through these questions, examining the impact of the 'warming cold' and 'lukewarm morass' on the current state of the world. Join us on this thought-provoking journey through Marxism's myriad interpretations, its challenges, and its potential relevance in a world grappling with the imminent fallout of capitalism's failures.

Laura Boella"Con voce umana"Arte e vita nei corpi di Maria Callas e Ingeborg BachmannPonte alle Graziewww.ponteallegrazie.itMilano, 1956. La scrittrice austriaca Ingeborg Bachmann assiste al Teatro alla Scala alla prova generale di Traviata con la regia di Luchino Visconti, la direzione di Carlo Maria Giulini e Maria Callas nel ruolo di Violetta. Quell'esperienza la scuote al punto da farle scrivere: «Che cosa sia la grande arte, che cosa sia un'artista l'ho capito il giorno in cui ho ascoltato la cantante Maria Callas». Le parole che, a distanza di anni, la scrittrice dedica a quell'incontro testimoniano qualcosa che va oltre l'ammirazione per una grande interprete ;in esse risuona un messaggio che toccala vera natura dell'arte e la sua capacità di avvicinarsi all'assoluto, di incarnare qualsiasi esperienza. Ma cosa era successo quel pomeriggio? E cosa ci racconta, oggi, quell'incontro, di noi? Per comprenderlo, Laura Boella è andata a caccia delle due artiste che, dietro la maschera del mito – due "Divine", nei rispettivi campi – hanno vissuto, ciascuna a suo modo, “sul filo del rasoio”. Prigioniere del pregiudizio, ostaggi della notorietà, pericolosamente esposte; eppure, e forse proprio per questo, capaci di far risuonare, nella sua irriducibilità, la propria voce: "una voce umana".Laura Boella è stata professore ordinario di Filosofia Morale e di Etica dell'ambiente presso il Dipartimento di Filosofia dell'Università Statale di Milano. Ha dedicato numerosi studi e traduzioni al pensiero di György Lukács e di Ernst Bloch, volgendosi successivamente al pensiero femminile del '900. Ha inoltre sviluppato il tema delle relazioni intersoggettive, dell'empatia e della simpatia, proponendo un confronto critico tra l'attuale ricerca scientifica e la prospettiva fenomenologica. Tra le sue pubblicazioni, Sentire l'altro. Conoscere e praticare l'empatia (2006), Neuroetica.La morale prima della morale (2008), Il coraggio dell'etica.

Interviewer: JOSHUA ROSE. In his recent book, The Principle of Political Hope, political theorist LOREN GOLDMAN attempts to avoid the sense of inevitability that creeps into political thought, either as optimistic faith in unstoppable progress or pessimistic despair at a broken world. Engaging with thinkers such as Immanuel Kant, Ernst Bloch, Charles Peirce, William James, and John Dewey, Goldman holds up hope as a productive middle ground, combining belief in the possibility of a better world with acceptance of the risk of failure. In his wide-ranging discussion with host Joshua Rose, he explores core questions of political life. Does history have a discernable direction and, if so, what role does that leave for purposive action? Are there clear standards of right and wrong by which to judge political outcomes? Should the individual be constrained by the collectivity? Above all, he argues for experimentation as a goal in itself and as an antidote to politics based on rigid certainties.

We welcome Tijana Okić back to the show for a discussion on the Marxist philosopher Ernst Bloch's idea of the warm and cold stream in Marxism. How are we to understand this distinction and which Marxist thinkers fit into these two streams? Can the cold and the warm streams be synthesized?   Tijana Okić is a philosopher, feminist and translator. She completed her Ph.D. in philosophy at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, Italy. She is one of the editors of the volume The Lost Revolution: AFŽ between Myth and Forgetting (Sarajevo, 2016).

This week we return to an old favorite topic of ours, the warm stream, romantic, or gothic in Marxism. This time we are joined by an accredited expert in all things gothic, Jon from the Horror Vanguard. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/horror-vanguard/id1445594437https://twitter.com/TheLitCritGuyBloch, Ernst, Neville Plaice, and Stephen Plaice.

As promised at the beginning of the semester we are going to stray away every so often from our theme of ethical philosophy and talk about our thesis research. This week we will be covering Theodore Adorno's "The Meaning of Working Through The Past" which focuses on the history of philosophy. This pairs with DJ Geist's thesis where he is comparing Ernst Bloch and Theodore Adorno's philosophy. As always DM us on insta if you have questions @philsophywethink!

In the search for new weapons, history itself becomes an arsenal of struggles. In the material processes of world history, one finds the principle of hope. These ideas are central to the work of the German Marxist Ernst Bloch, and on this episode Jon AKA TheLitCritGuy from Horror Vanguard and Profane Illuminations and B from Zer0 Books join Will and Adam in exploring and introducing his vast corpus. We discussed Bloch's theory of Utopian Hope, his relationship to Hegelian Marxism and Lukacs, and the theology of revolution.We based our talk on Jon's essay "A Primer on Utopian Philosophy: Marxism and Utopian Struggle", you can check it out and support Jon here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/primer-on-and-76597996 Support Zer0 Books and Repeater Media on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/zerobooksSubscribe: http://bit.ly/SubZeroBooksFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ZeroBooks/Twitter: https://twitter.com/zer0books-----Other links:Check out the projects of some of the new contributors to Zer0 Books:Acid HorizonPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/acidhorizonSupport the podcast:Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastMerch: http://www.crit-drip.comOrder 'The Philosopher's Tarot': https://repeaterbooks.com/product/the-philosophers-tarot/Subscribe to us on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/169wvvhiHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Revolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/The Horror VanguardApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/horror-vanguard/id1445594437Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/horrorvanguardBuddies Without OrgansApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/buddies-without-organs/id1543289939Website: https://buddieswithout.org/Xenogothic: https://xenogothic.com/Support Daniel Tutt's work by visiting the Torsion Groups Patreon account: https://patreon.com/torsiongroups

In Part Two of our two-part mini-series we discuss the work of Ernst Bloch's The Principle of Hope. We ask what difference there is between the thought of Bloch and Theodor Adorno, how hope and utopia enable political action, and why so many traditions seem to abhor the concept of utopia. Expand your horizons and come learn how to hope again in this episode!This is just a small clip from the full episode, which is available to patrons:patreon.com/leftofphilosophyReferences:Ernst Bloch, The Principle of Hope, vols. 1 &3, trans.

In part one of our two-part mini-series on hermeneutics and utopia we discuss the thought of Hans-Georg Gadamer in his 1983 text Praise of Theory. We talk about the importance of prejudice and tradition for self-understanding, ask whether the natural sciences or the human sciences have sole claim to truth, and praise the (qualified) freedom of theory from instrumental reason (continental philosophy even gets a positive shout-out!). The purpose of this mini-series is to assess the insights of hermeneutics for theory and social philosophy, so look forward to our Patron exclusive conclusion on Ernst Bloch!leftofphilosophy.com | @leftofphilReferences:Hans-Georg Gadamer, Praise of Theory, trans.

Synopsis Temple Emanu-El in San Francisco is one of America's foremost reform congregations. For some 50 years its cantor was Reuben Rinder, who, in addition to his liturgical duties, was a composer, impresario, and musical mentor. Cantor Rinder influenced the careers of two of the 20th century's greatest violinists, Yehudi Menuhin and Isaac Stern, and also commissioned two of the 20th century's most famous concert versions of the Jewish liturgy, the Evening and Morning Sabbath Service settings of Ernst Bloch and Darius Milhaud. Milhaud's Sabbath Morning Service was first heard at Temple Emanu-El on today's date in 1949, with its composer conducting. Milhaud was born in Provence and wrote that the Provencal Jewish tradition evoked in his score differs somewhat from the more standard Ashkenazi liturgy prevalent in most American synagogues then and now. The composer's intention was to create a personal musical statement that could serve as both an actual liturgy for the faithful and as an ecumenical musical experience for any and all who hear the work, whether in temple or concert hall. In that respect, Milhaud's Sacred Service was a great success. Alongside Bloch's setting, written in the early 1930s, shortly before the onset of the Holocaust, Milhaud's setting, written in the years following the conclusion of World War II, remains a powerful and moving affirmation of religious faith.

In this week's episode, we take a deep dive into a topic that most people who enjoy pop culture have thought of at some point: “What is Science Fiction?” In this first part, we lay the groundwork for discussing our favorite Sci-Fi across all media by defining terms of science fiction. If you enjoy this episode, please like, share and subscribe to the podcast. You can reach us at Secretoriginsmc@gmail.com and visit the Facebook group The Secret Origins of Mint Condition. We are also on Instagram @secretoriginsmc. :11 James introduces the show with our special guest, Jack Adrien, to try and answer the question, “What is science fiction?" James gives a background of how this question evolved as a topic we wanted to discuss and then turns it over to Jack for some opening thoughts. We begin with different ideas centered around the question, “how do we define science fiction?” 3:45 Jack starts by defining the subject based on the definition given by Shawn Coyne in “The Story Grid,” sharing all the possible sub genera of science fiction. Jack then goes on to talk about a broader idea of science fiction called the Novum. First coined by Ernst Bloch, it means “an element of science that one could imagine could exist.” Chris responds with his own thoughts based on the definitions that Jack presented. 10:18 Joe brings up the topic of “Cognitive Estrangement” that Darko Suvin coined, estranging us from reality. This leads to Joe giving his thoughts about the definition put forward by Jack. James also weighs in with his thoughts and how they have changed from when he first started consuming science fiction. 13:48 Jack provides a definition of “Cognitive Estrangement” this leads to talking about a purist definition of Sci-Fi. This brings us to the works of Ted Chiang. Jack admits that he likes his sci-fi in between a purist definition and the larger, more forgiving definition, like “The Matrix”. Chris asks the question: does the genre advance the story that the person is telling? This leads us to a comparison of The Expanse vs Game of Thrones. 22:20 Joe responds and weighs in on the idea of story. He quotes Isaac Asimov and brings up how sci-fi grew into its own brand of literature. James expounds upon this with Joe, and how that job of sci- fi is to inform and entertain. Jack weighs in with his thoughts on story; how story can define how we fit in the real world and what is going on in the real world. 28:45 Joe responds to Jack and gives his own definition of science fiction: “speculation through introspection." Where do we fit in the universe? Chris builds upon what Joe said about story and how binding history to a story made him more interested in learning about history. 32:35 Jack talks about how frustrating it is when science fiction gets lumped in with action adventure, arguing there is no story or substance with these stories or movies. This leads to a conversation about why a science fiction movie has not won an Academy Award. Joe backs up Jack's thoughts on how people misclassify sci-fi and that is part of what prevents it from getting the respect it deserves. Chris talks about gatekeeper culture and how that is seen in many parts of society, and not just sci-fi. 38:52 Jack goes over Shawn Coyne's 5 leaf infographic (this will be available below). This breaks down stories and sub classification. Jack also defines “miracle exemptions:" how far removed from reality is a story before it becomes fantasy.
