An aging Cambridge math professor who had been teaching math
for many years was told that his teaching required more diversity. He was advised to study English literature –
something as simple as Browning – perhaps “The Charge of the light Brigade.” After reading for some time, the professor
said, “One half league, it states, and then again, one half league, and then
another half league… Why can’t he just
say one an one half leagues??” –Louis Jacobs
Everyone sees the work through their own lens. One person sees orange while another says, "red." Who is correct? Maybe both?
Neither? What does the answer say about us?
