For the record, right now I couldn't care less what happens at Ground Zero. The initial post here is more an exposition of Muschamp's reenacting 'criticism' already published, and perhaps even exhibits plagiarism on Muschamp's part.
The evocation of Lethe is extremely apt because it is indeed 'forgetfullness' that is the most present modus operandi at Ground Zero. The 'erasure' was erased long ago.
Rebuilding the World Trade Center Towers as they were is only the easiest form of reenactment, but not necessarily the only form of reenactment, nor necessarily the most effective form of reenactment.
Is not memory itself humanity's primal form of reenactment?
