Now, Patricia Yaeger, in her argument, rejects what has typically been offered
-
up as a way to account for these things, and that's the religious reading.
-
She says, to dismiss that violence into an old and comfortable theology
-
is simply not to see it, not really to see it,
-
not to notice that O'Connor put it there in such a sharp and compelling form.
-
I want to change tack for a minute, and now I'm going to veer into that
-
second kind of context that I said I was going to talk about today.
-
There is something else I think we're meant to see that is neither
-
theology nor southern context, and I want to show you that now by
-
looking at chapter 7; it starts on 115 in your book
-
117 in this edition.
-
I just want to read the opening.
