The effects of a vigorous genius working upon large materials.
–Samuel Johnson, on Dryden’s life’s work
The above quote, in Charon QC‘s case, really is fitting. At the moment–i.e., all last week, today and for the next week–I don’t have time to read anything. You know what I mean. But I read every word of Charon’s Blawg Review #193, and I hope some time this week you can do the same. At #193, London’s Charon has “themed“–but he didn’t really need to. Here again is writing a blog as an art form at Blawg Review. Charon even makes lawyers look as well-rounded and “on the ball” in other walks of life as we should be: fun, erudite, instructive, brave, and very alive. While I am proud of the quality of blogs by U.S. lawyers and commentators, Albion’s best pundit and London guide gives you an idea of how non-U.S. blogs, and especially European ones, can get you quickly to a whole new way of looking at, and reacting to, your world. Well done, sir, and next time I’ll buy the Rioja. Finally, bravo to the hard-working, elusive and peripatetic Ed., for going after and showcasing the very best, from no matter what part of the globe it may come.
