Since WordPress is such an immense pain to use and revise or reorder, my main page for publishing my online essays is now Academia.edu: see https://swarthmore.academia.edu/PeterSchmidt
Some essays are still posted here. See my WordPress blog’s drop-down menu, including Selected Essays and (for more academic essays) this blog’s Publications menu.
For older essays designed in the time of a much older Web, see links below.
