Take three-quarters of a hour and watch the following video interview with Anthony Daniels, a.k.a. Theodore Dalrymple.
Daniels is one of our most thoughtful, intelligent, and compassionate writers on culture. A quick Google search will bring you many of his books and articles.
The streaming video, first appearing on Dutch public television, is here.
Sorry, found it. the contrast on my laptop isn’t very good.
Yes, it should be pointed out that the video is rather dark, barely lit by an unseen lamp and a gradually diminishing fire behind Daniels.
Using MS Media Player’s adjustment of the Video Settings Contrast and Brightness fixes any percieved darkness.
