Dietrich Bonhoeffer is a badass

Got pretty much his whole history in Readings in Rhetoric yesterday.  No one knew what the fuck our professor was talking about until the end of the story, but it was a great story nonetheless.  Clearly, we understood what he was saying, what the story was, and found it interesting but I don't think anyone really understood how it connected to the class until he told us that we would be reading a letter of his through the eyes of four major rhetoricians and writing papers analyzing that letter from the respective perspectives.  This revelation also made me way less nervous about the papers because just looking at the syllabus told me nothing.  Aristotle is gonna tear that shit apart, sonnnnn.

What?

In case you don't know, Bonhoeffer was part of the plot to assassinate Hitler and helped German Jews escape to Switzerland AND rebelled against the Lutheran church to start his own when they wouldn't oppose the Nazi government.  Badass.
