Endnotes

1 Words in italics are from the song “Rocky Top,” by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant. The phrase “Rocky Top” is used variously to refer to Knoxville, that city’s University of Tennessee, and to virtually any rural and mountainous part of East Tennessee. That ambiguity is discussed in the commentary.

2 Until somewhat recently, that is. In June 2014, the small town of Lake City, TN, changed its name to Rocky Top in a bid to attract tourists.

3 John Gerome, “Rocky Top Forever,” Knoxville News Sentinel April 23, 2003: A1.
