So honored by this level of engagement with my work and more importantly that of the masters! I hope to respond in depth soon but just here wanting to express deep gratitude, great interest and great respect for your process. I think that my fundamental existential concern here is for the value of sacrifice as essential to personal and collective life. That said, my monotheism and sacrifice book is far behind my current perspective and I am tempted to a major revision. If I do that it will be with your work in mind and cited! .
Thank you Cleo! I'm looking forward to continuing this conversation. My next steps is to turn that Mead x Girard essay into an article that could be published, and to look at Philippine myths and folklore through the same lens.
Fascinating stuff. Regarding Philippine Folk literature, Damiana Eugenio's Philippine folk literature series is a solid resource.
