Dueling Definitions

Sørina reviews Owen Barfield's view of controversy as two separate publics with different definitions of words, then she compares defintions of terms from guests throughout the "Bad Words" series. She concludes that arguments in America today do not result from conflicting defitions, but from disagreements about what examples fit into categories. Sadly, she doesn't have a solution to offer.  Support this work: https://buymeacoffee.com/higginssorina Read Sørina's Substack: https://sorinahiggins.substack.com/ Hire Dr. Higgins as an editor: https://wyrdhoard.com/
