Dylan, apparently reacting against his total emotional involvement in the stifling, up-to-date agonies of Blonde on Blonde, took care to place his new songs in another, strange realm. This process is akin to the Brechtian notion of "defamiliarization"--making the action subject to rational scrutiny, unclouded by emotion, because it is viewed from a distance. And since this technique requires activation by a Message, Dylan was able to infuse John Wesley Harding with a spiritual, almost religious tone...
From birth, the "war babies" were reared according to Spock. He told their mothers how to diaper them, how to feed them, and--most important-- how to mold their soft little heads. Spock was clever. The indoctrination would be a slow process, he reasoned in 1946, when he wrote the book. But eventually, he knew he would have a whole generation thinking as he wanted, opposing...

Later that evening he added: "In that process, we're going to have to kill a lot of these cops, a lot of these judges, and we'll have to go up against their army." A onetime Communist who thought that the Party was too restrained and resigned to help organize the Peking-oriented Progressive Labor Movement, Epton was arrested and eventually convicted in a New York court...
