Seurat soon began working on rough-grained paper with black Conte crayons, and whi le his figures retain the volume derived from his traditional training, they also project a matter-of-fact, immediate presence: A stone breaker from 1881, the handle on his sledgehammer going from thick to thin as if on a downward stroke, stands amid squiggling lines that convey surrounding rubble; a nurse is viewed from behind, white hat and scarf against a dark, bellshaped coat forming a prescient abstraction. Bernard Guillot A deep crack meanders between large stone blocks, limning centuries of stress in an Egyptian wall; an unevenly plastered hallway in Cairo's hotel Maffet is abraded with age, rounded corners softened by chiaroscuro light that settles like dust; a round sink, its white edge worn and...

America's five largest brokerage houses - Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, Bear Stearns - dropped some $25 billion last Christmas on their top performers. Senior traders and dealmakers raked in $20 million apiece. One top gun, who bet on everything from the price of copper to interest and exchange rate fluctuations, pulled a cool $100 million. A 25- year-old futures trader hit his stride at $1.4 million in just under an hour. The first place to see that kind of instant wealth in action is "the Hamptons" in the summer, the once bucolic patch that became America's Riviera and the world's wealthiest resort.

[...] I realize, Barthesian enough, how much my romantic life has been intertwined with bookstores, whether the long-gone Great Expectations in Evanston, Illinois, in which I used to browse with my college girlfriend, or Tattered Cover in Denver, where I cooled my heels while waiting for someone living in the mountains fifty miles away, or Williams Corner Bookstore in Charlottesville, whose spectacular philosophy section occupied me while my wife, Sara, was preparing class.

I want to elucidate some connections between memory and judgment by presenting these themes in the work of Hannah Arendt and Walter Benjamin. It is my sense that we can learn a lot about these themes from these two seminal thinkers, if not from what they share in common (something that might be called a "solution" to a particular problem, or even a "theory"), but at least from the serious questions that confronted both and which should confront us more often.
