general video discussing Wolfe and literature

Much of this I have said in various posts, but I thought it might be neat for those who don't have time to read some of the posts to have an audio option. It has a slightly more mainstream target audience than the urth mailing list (people somewhat familiar with literary history and criticism but perhaps those who don't necessarily appreciate Wolfe). I cut some stuff out which tied my discussion of Aristotle and the early purposes of literature to Wolfe, as I felt it made this first video too long. Hope you enjoy it.
