“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Nice Post on Bachelard
...and Nietzsche, and Stesichorus, and other things too. And a bit on Heidegger, by Aurelio Madrid, at Luctor et Emergo. I do like The Poetics of Space. Having never seen a photo of Bachelard, I was surprised by his ornate beard.
