This is the blog–under construction–of Michael Keefer, professor of English at the University of Guelph.  I will be posting my essays and meditations on topics ranging from present-day politics–9/11 evidence, stolen US elections, the fraudulent and criminal ‘war on terror’, struggles for freedom and democracy in countries like Haiti, Venezuela, and Palestine, as well as here at home in Canada–to questions of early modern philosophy and literature that in some instances hauntingly anticipate contemporary issues and conflicts.
