Thank you so much, Corrado! You’re right to correct me on Gramsci. I often quote this as my motto and even in my “About Me” story but often my brain reverses the order for some reason. I’m glad you caught it. I had no idea the quote originated with Kant. Like you, I have learned a lot from reading Arendt. I do think the exilic existence is one shared by many academics, whether they like it or not. Looking forward to more stories from you!
