It was the only way to secure cash from the funding agency. The philosopher had a track record of winning projects, and “emeritus” in their title, so everyone is forced to hang around with them in order to continue their livelihoods.
For some reason the project proposal also includes the funding of two post grads to interview other post grads on the importance of poetry written in that time period.
Applications are being written for a follow on project to ask local residents if they feel more or less royalist every 6 months for the next 4 years.

yeah those dorks look down on the philosopher for not knowing things even though they don’t know how society works and the philosopher does
If the philosopher knew how society worked you’d think he’d have avoided being sentenced to the torture pit
