Sample text

To the criticism he received, Morris in those years sometimes gave explicit replies, sometimes replies included in the solutions he proposed to problems (often real working instruments). Today, there is a tendency to raise those replies and solutions above their respective situations, I believe with the intention of throwing light on their residual theoretical vitality.
