In this post, Joe Musicology writes:

My favorite (or should I say favourite) paper by far was Sarah Hibberd’s Cherubini and the Revolutionary Sublime. In it, she argues that the French were equally pursuing “…a (French) conception of the sublime that complements the German Idealist view that has tended to dominate nineteenth-century studies” (from her abstract) It was a nice discussion although I wish she had looked a little closer at German idealism.

He continues in an unrelated breath later:
Finally, the composer of the day is Vanessa Lann. I don’t like to characterize styles, except to say I like her stuff.

Really dude?! Your job is to characterize styles?! You love that shit.

Worst part is that I'm enough of a hater to notice these things.
