BATB on Christopher Dawson

Cat at Brits at Their Best posts on the notable 20th century historian, Christopher Dawson:
Dawson notes that the study of religion and Western culture is so enormous and so specialized a field that many scholars are trapped on small islands of knowledge. A commentator such as Hitchens wanders through this huge, rich field in self-imposed darkness, refusing to switch on his flashlight.
I enjoy this blog a great deal and highly recommend it for fellow admiring anglophiles across the big pond.
