I always love to see anything by Brett Devereux on here. His articles are one of the highlights of the week for me. Always interesting, always entertaining, and I always learn something. His blog doesn’t have an obviously visible RSS feed, but if you point your reader to it it’ll find it. I think it’s at /feed.atom or some such.

Me too! I really enjoyed his collections on the "Fremen Mirage"[1] investigating the "hard times make hard men" trope and "Practical Polytheism"[2]. Brett's articles are mainly social histories which are very accessible and interesting reads. While we're all human, we can easily misunderstand the people of the past in fundamental ways if we assume that they had our identical beliefs and values.
