On a tear

I started the day with a library run. On more or less a whim I picked up a recent collection of articles on Welhaven, and I found the perfect jumping off point for my little polemic on Norwegian Romanticism, an article by Eirik Vassenden called something like "Welhaven og den andre romantikken." He does a great job of presenting the perfect evidence for my claim, and then turns around and essentially argues the exact opposite. So strange!

At any rate, it really got me going, and I wrote quite a bit in response, and also did some digging in the literary histories. I checked out Edda's editorial policies, and noticed that they also have a shorter category of article that the publish that the designate as debate contributions. I'm wondering if I perhaps should aim for that format?
