| <blockquote>I am thinking about Walter Benjamin’s ‘The Storyteller’, the two archetypes he describes: the storyteller who travels and brings the stories from elsewhere, and the storyteller who stays put and holds the stories of a particular place. How do we learn to do both things – to move on, and to stay put – with greater awareness of their effect on ourselves and on others? --Dougald Hine</blockquote> | <blockquote>I am thinking about Walter Benjamin’s ‘The Storyteller’, the two archetypes he describes: the storyteller who travels and brings the stories from elsewhere, and the storyteller who stays put and holds the stories of a particular place.

| In the guilds of the middle ages, a journeyman was someone who had completed his apprenticeship and was competent in his craft, but had not yet risen to the level of master. The word could be misleading – “journey” is actually “journée”, referring to the status of a day-labourer – yet there is a long tradition of the wandering journeyman, moving from place to place to learn more about how his craft is being practiced. In parts of Europe, this continues to the present day. | In the guilds of the middle ages, a journeyman was someone who had completed his apprenticeship and was competent in his craft, but had not yet risen to the level of master.

| Within the range of possibilities these questions offered, I chose to focus on what I have tended to call deep cultural resilience. As a starting point, I wrote, perhaps resilience is best understood as the capacity to endure. | Within the range of possibilities these questions offered, I chose to focus on what I have tended to call deep cultural resilience.
