Episode: Emily Dickinson's "How soft a Caterpillar steps —"
Description: Philosopher Thomas Nagel famously argued that it is impossible to know what it’s like to be a bat. Dickinson, on the other hand, claims to know what caterpillars care (or don’t care) about. Happy reading. This is a public episode.
