Example text

39 In Heidegger’s conception, however, this melting away is a kind of renewal insofar as the water this snowman will become will again transform into snow once the cycle of precipitation completes its revolution. The essential fragility that characterizes the snowman mirrors the instability of life’s journey. This, in turn, echoes the textual properties that Derrida associates with endless possible readings. In questioning theological matters, then, this snowman provides a measure of hope in the face of a condition that is essentially hopeless in its mortal (as far as snowmen go) nature.

A few panels later, Calvin’s boredom morphs into a similar escape; he soars through the air — free once again from school — on the back of a pterodactyl. Like his imagined encounter with Susie, Calvin’s dinosaur-related escape from reality ultimately resists the order that his actual experiences impose. The final word is a ride (without borders) that boredom cannot contain. Another strong example of the imagination’s freedom comes in one of the more unexpected twists in the dinosaur corpus from Calvin and Hobbes.
