Tim Russert - In Memoriam: 1950 - 2008

Posted by: Robert Sandberg in General, tags: Tim Russert

im Russert to our dismay and shock passed away this June 13, 2008, 2 days before father’s day, about which, fatherhood, he had so much to say—of his dad, big Russ, and his son, Luke. Farewell truth’s friend.

The Oldest Story?
It has been 4,209 years and 5 days since the writing down of what may be the earliest known recorded narrative, the Sumerian "Enmerkar and the Lord of Aratta." A series of accounts describing the conflicts between Enmerkar, king of Unug-Kulaba (Uruk), and the unnamed king of Aratta (probably somewhere in modern Iran or Armenia). It is notable for its strong parallels to the Tower of Babel narrative of Genesis. [Wikipedia]

Tim Russert
Quotable

Our tendency to look for an orderly “evolution” of narrative is itself evidence of how narratives work: we impose a pattern on the past so that we can tell a coherent story about it.
