from notes on "The Gutenberg Galaxy" by Marshall McLuhan

*Quoting Aquinas:
"The senses delight in things duly proportioned as in something akin to them, for, the sense, too, is a kind of reason as is every cognitive power." (107)

p. 109: Medievals associated the message with both the book and the word.

Yet such pretenses are not only consolations but may even be productive of a little ersatz courage." IRIS MURDOCH The Sea, the Sea

Who are these men? Why are they doing this?
