I think there’s something to what you’re saying, for sure. But I think he’d have other things to say on the matter. What he’s speaking against, here, is a sense of rootlessness, a failure to draw from the rich springs that tradition can offer.

Doing so, always, will require judiciousness. A willingness to choose between the good of a tradition and the false constraints it might tempt one to take on. I think this care is what David means by “agency.”

That use of the word “agency” troubles me.

“I have this intellectual identity, I have……….” This also troubles me some because done too well it can be a closing of one’s mind………Q

What a great surprise! I studied the “discontents of modernity” with David Kyuman Kim in the fall of 2002 – my introduction to Kant, Weber, William James, and even Du Bois. I haven’t grappled with those genealogies/lineages recently, especially since I took up policy on mentally ill prisoners. It may be too nitty-gritty, but I wonder how philosophers concerned with the expression of agency and freedom would respond to the obscene U.S. phenomenon of mass incarceration.
