What is Rogue Scholarship? {on Aging}

A. I will take as a starting point, a quote from Franz Kafka: A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us.

And then modify it thusly: A blog must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us.
+
B. schol·ar·ship  (sklr-shp)n. The methods, discipline, and attainments of a scholar or scholars.
+
C. Operating outside normal or desirable controls
+
D. To think critically about the aging experience in a scholarly manner using traditional models and methods (but not exclusively) and then the wisdom to reflect and contextualize the process and interpretations in an interdisciplinary manner.

E. “Know Thyself” – “Nothing to excess” – “Dare to know” – “Memento mori” – “Kairos”
