Found out today that I passed an exam question (doing an exegesis) - in the marker's words "only just".
The lecturer made a very kind offer of teaching me how to do an exegesis properly, instead of my puny self-taught effort.
Now I know a number of learned academic minds read this blog - what do you think?
Do I have it in me to exegetise well?
Am I an exegetiter?
Is exegetisising a very important skill?
(Am I now making up nonsense words?)
Did you know that an anagram of "exegesis is fun" is "seeing fixes us"?
Amen to that!
hah! hah! hah!
ReplyDeleteI asked
ReplyDelete"Do I have it in me to exegetise well?"
Stuart, I'll take your comment as a "no"
:-)
"Exegetise"? Is that even a word?
ReplyDeleteOkay, okay -
ReplyDeleteI think that the questions are: -
'Do I have it in me to exegete well?'
'Am I an exegete?'
'Is exegeting (or exegesis)a very important skill?'
To the first three questions the answer is 'yes' (I think but how would I know - will set a question if you want) and to your last question Am I now making up nonsense words - the answer is also 'yes'.
There that is the answer from the lecturer (module co-ordinator - sorry) in me.
But still hah! hah! hah!
