<blockquote>"In the novel, we see all the characteristic types of persons dominated by a despot. Ahab is indeed a tyrant, effectively a usurper. The rightful owner of the whaling ship Pequod has hired a captain, not a monarch, and charged him with the task of hunting whales for their oil—but a mere contract in a commercial venture has no standing with an absolute ruler. Famously, Ahab has another mission, to which he has sworn himself and his sinister familiar, the mysterious Fedallah: to chase and kill the great white whale, the malevolent being that sheared off his leg during a previous voyage. None of his officers or crew has signed on for such a quest. Ahab will overawe and rule them by means of demagoguery, threats of force, and fraud, invoking, by turns, greed and terror."</blockquote></p>

issue
of the Center’s weekly, <i>The Great Ideas Online</i> (No. 1050), discussed this lecture presented a the Industrial Indemnity Company in April 1957, the third in a series of lectures entlitled Major Issues of Our Time.
<blockquote>"Compulsory adult education is a contradiction in terms, since
anyone who is an adult should be responsible for his own
continuing education and should engage in it voluntarily.
Nevertheless, our society as a whole must do everything it can
to provide the conditions favorable to adult learning, and to
foster the occasions or circumstances that facilitate it; and it
must do this not only through the agencies of government and
by the use of public funds, but also by the cooperation of
business corporations, labor unions, churches, universities,
and by the use of private funds made available for this purpose
by charitable trusts."</blockquote></p>

issue
of the Center’s weekly, <i>The Great Ideas Online</i> (No. 1049), discussed this chapter of <i>Intellect: Mind Over Matter</i>, by Mortimer Adler.
<blockquote>"Why, then, are the cultural anthropologists
and the existentialists wrong in their denial of a specific human
nature and a common human mind shared by all persons regardless
of the subset of the human population to which they belong and
regardless of their idiosyncratic individuality?"</blockquote></p>

<i><a href="https://www.chronicle.com/article/Democracy-s-Disappearance/241303"
title="OCTOBER 01, 2017">Chronicle of Higher Education</a></i>.
<blockquote>"Values don’t merely infiltrate education from the outside, as ideological add-ons, but are constitutive of the very practice of teaching. It is more urgent than ever for colleges to break the stranglehold of specialization on undergraduate curricula and to educate students with an awareness of what is required to produce an informed citizenry.
<br><br>
"The place to start is with nondisciplinary curricula that take seriously the history — both admirable and shameful — that gave shape to our political order. A few colleges have undertaken this task, designing common curricula that place disciplinary specialties aside and focus on introducing all students to the fundamental problems of communal living, the existential quandaries of being human, and the political lineage that has shaped Western democracies."</blockquote></p>

issue
of the Center’s weekly, <i>The Great Ideas Online</i> (No. 1048), discussed this chapter of <i>Intellect: Mind Over Matter</i>, by Mortimer Adler.
<blockquote>"There may be one and the same reality for all of us and human experience may have a common core, but is the mind, and especially the intellect, of all human beings essentially the same? Is there one human mind, having specific properties common to all members of the human species, just as there are common anatomical and physiological properties common to all of us? Or is there a diversity of minds varying according to the diversity of languages in use and varying with the diversity of cultures in which the mind is reared?"<!-- p. 126 --></blockquote></p>

title="September 20, 2017">Real Clear Politics</a>.
<blockquote>"Clifton] Fadiman and others, like <i>Encyclopædia Britannica</i>, which published the Great Books, revealed a great truth: With a little guidance, you can do a lot to educate yourself, and you can do it at any age. Fadiman’s <i>Lifetime Reading Plan</i> does that. The Kirkus review of the first edition captures its flavor well:
<blockquote>'[Fadiman] sees, in the books and writers he has chosen, the tools not only of self-enhancement but of self-discovery. … This is not a reading plan for the scholar, but for 'everyman' -- the high school student who can go no farther in formal education, the college graduate who has bypassed the treasures of literature, the average layman who is reasonably literate, but needs a refresher on things half experienced in the past.'</blockquote>
"'With its snappy introductions to each work, the book is 'a project that captures the imagination and fires the ambition,' in the reviewer’s words."</blockquote></p>

<blockquote>"So in our timidity, let us each make a choice: whether to remain
consciously a servant of falsehood (of course, it is not out of inclination but
to feed one's family that one raises one's children in the spirit of lies), or to
shrug off the lies and become an honest man worthy of respect from one's
children and contemporaries."</blockquote>

<blockquote>"Only if the other view [contrary to Immanuel Kant's] is correct, the view that the mind has no innate perceptual forms and no innate conceptual categories, can it be true that our mind-dependent experience does not preclude us from having knowledge of reality—of things in themselves through that experience."</blockquote></p>

Johnson and Melissa Love Koenig at the
<a href="https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3567526"
title="8 Apr 2020">Social Science Research Network</a>
<blockquote>Abstract<br>
<br>
"Lawyers are storytellers who face tremendous pressure to persuade judges and juries of the rightness of their stories. Zealous advocacy has long been a touchstone in lawyering, but lawyers need to balance zealousness with candor to the tribunal. As narrative and storytelling have evolved in scholarship and practice as powerful tools for persuasion, lawyers can find themselves walking a delicate ethical line. The applicable Model Rules of Professional Conduct do not provide a sufficient framework for ensuring sufficient candor in the use of narrative, particularly when considering the cultural and psychological power inherent in stories. Thus, lawyers can find themselves sliding on a slippery slope into ethically actionable misrepresentation.<br>
<br>
"These are not new problems, and the classics have something to teach modern lawyers using narrative to persuade. Aristotle addressed the same types of concerns in his <i>Nicomachean Ethics</i> and <i>On Rhetoric</i>. Aristotle discussed the importance of keeping one’s conduct within the 'mean'—to maintain a balanced approach to one’s life and practice. He also stressed the value of using good habits to develop a person’s character. Aristotle’s wisdom can guide a lawyer who seeks to be a candid, ethical, and still zealous advocate.<br>
<br>
"Thus, this Article posits that incorporating Aristotle’s concepts of virtue ethics into the Preamble of the Model Rules will provide guidance to lawyers seeking to use legal storytelling in an ethical, balanced way. Providing lawyers with intrinsic motivation to behave ethically provides a more workable framework than adding additional proscriptive requirements to the Model Rules, particularly for lawyers walking the line between truth and falsity when retelling client facts through storytelling."</blockquote>

<blockquote><center>SUMMARY</center>
"The article is an attempt to answer the question of why Aquinas stops his commentary
on Boethius’s <i>De Trinitate</i> at question six, article four, whereas this is before the point
in the treatise where Boethius gets to the heart of the subject matter. The author shows
that Aquinas (1) decides to do so because the treatise cannot afford him the means of
demonstrating the existence of the Trinity, (2) holds that, although rational explanations
could be given in terms of proof of God’s existence, one cannot come to the knowledge
of the truth of the existence of the Trinity by reason alone, and (3) concludes that, although we cannot prove the doctrine of the existence of the Trinity through philosophical demonstration, we can, however, show that this doctrine and other doctrines known
through the light of faith are not contradictory."</blockquote></p>

<li style="margin-left: 15px; text-align: left;"><strong>An announcement below from City Internships Founder and CEO:</strong></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There is of course much uncertainty concerning the broad economic effects of COVID-19, let alone the direct effects on student and graduate work experience and job opportunities.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Amid the seemingly bleak early data - the Institute of Student Employers (ISE), for instance, reports that 68% of employers have "cancelled work experience and insight opportunities altogether" - we would like to provide students with some cause for hope and straightforward actionable advice.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Over the past few weeks we've been working to form a more complete understanding of how our various partner employers across the world are positioning themselves with respect to their student and graduate intakes this summer. Our findings do not jibe with the most pessimistic statistics your students may be seeing,</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Only a small fraction of our partner employers have cancelled their summer opportunities altogether. Critically, all those who have are firms with headcounts above 5,000 (the kind of firms most likely to feature in surveys conducted by organizations like the ISE).<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Similarly, the overwhelming majority of our partner employers have committed to hosting interns virtually, either as a default or fall-back approach, this summer. Again, we have observed an inverse relationship between a company's size and their ability to be flexible.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We are consequently recommending students seeking work experience to (i) ensure they apply to a diverse array of employers (with respect to company size) and (ii) consider including a "will consider virtual/remote arrangements" (or similar) statement in their resume.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Given the tight jobs market to come, soon-to-be graduates should be advised that while virtual/remote placements may provide less complete experiences as compared with in-person placements, they will typically carry the same weight on your resume among future prospective employers (in part, because it is not common to describe a placement as remote, in-person or otherwise on a resume).<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
To the extent you feel these points may be valuable to your students, please share them. </div>

</ul>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I am sorry to have to add to your confinement blues, but my annual list of books in medieval philosophy --- below --- comes with two pieces of bad news. First, this is not as comprehensive a list as in previous years. (For various reasons, I was unable to call on the research help that I have previously relied on.) Second, I have decided that this is the last such list I am going to generate. It turns out to be a tedious and unending process to hunt down new books published in the field. Having done it since 2012, I have decided to stop pushing this particular rock up this particular hill. (On to other rocks and other hills!)<br />

If others are interested in taking over this public service, I would of course be delighted to share their work in this forum.<br />

Further details about the issue <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://realityjournal.org/2020/03/04/what-is-reality-2019-issue-1/&source=gmail&ust=1587920732183000&usg=AFQjCNHFcF7zRDN63hnynxOOelQIu6wHXA" href="https://realityjournal.org/2020/03/04/what-is-reality-2019-issue-1/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">can be found</a><a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://realityjournal.org/2020/03/04/what-is-reality-2019-issue-1/&source=gmail&ust=1587920732183000&usg=AFQjCNHFcF7zRDN63hnynxOOelQIu6wHXA" href="https://realityjournal.org/2020/03/04/what-is-reality-2019-issue-1/" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">here</a> (as well as links to both formats).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This issue comprises an editorial introduction and four articles, each paired with a peer-review response or comment. While I believe that each contribution is worthy of consideration on its own, together they form something I think both rare and needed in our current philosophical environment: a cohesively-themed volume that engages in genuine discourse about a topic sorely in need of discussion. I am proud of the quality of writing, scholarship, and philosophical insight we have managed to combine in the span of a few hundred pages, and optimistic about the future of our journal. To that end, I have attached a few calls for papers: for both the upcoming issues of Reality and a general call for essays and book reviews. If you know of anyone who would be interested in submitting (professors, graduate students, or other well-qualified authors), please send them along.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Thank you for your time and your interest, and please feel free to contact me with any comments or questions (or to ask for removal from this list if you want no further notifications).</div>

Best,</div>

<em>The Human Person: What Aristotle and Thomas Aquinas Offer Modern Psychology</em></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong>Book description: </strong>This book introduces the Aristotelian-Thomistic view of the human person to a contemporary audience, and reviews the ways in which this view could provide a philosophically sound foundation for modern psychology. The book presents the current state of psychology and offers critiques of the current philosophical foundations. In its presentation of the fundamental metaphysical commitments of the Aristotelian-Thomistic view, it places the human being within the broader understanding of the world.</div>

</ul>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Most U.S. universities have sent their students home. Now there's even more need for a forum where students and others can encounter the truth of the Catholic intellectual tradition – and experience a real communion in the truth.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
That’s why the TI has been working around the clock to create a new outreach of the Thomistic Institute: <strong>Quarantine Lectures</strong>, which will launch next week. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<strong></strong><br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong><strong>The TI will live </strong><strong>s</strong><strong>tream lectures several nights a week, for as long as the coronavirus quarantine lasts</strong><span style="font-weight: normal;">.</span></strong></div>
<strong>
</strong>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
Participants will be able to <strong>watch</strong> the live video stream, <strong>ask real-time questions</strong> by voice from your own webcam, and <strong>continue the conversation</strong> with students from their campus via live post-lecture video discussion groups at the end of the session. (Non-students are welcome, too, especially our Aquinas 101 subscribers!) </div>

<strong>Volume description:</strong></div>
<div>
<strong></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Ce premier volume des OEuvres completes rassemble plus de cent-quinze textes publies par Etienne Gilson entre 1908 et 1943, afin de presenter l'ensemble des prises de parole du philosophe sur son actualite. Il comprend le volume Pour un ordre catholique (1934), les articles politiques que Gilson redige dans la presse nationale et confessionnelle, les entretiens, les conferences pedagogiques, les interventions publiques sur les intellectuels, les professeurs d'Universite ou les hommes de lettres contemporains. On trouvera egalement le cours ou Gilson examine avec acuite le phenomene totalitaire (automne 1933), ouvrant la voie au volume sur Les metamorphoses de la Cite de Dieu de 1952. Ce n'est qu'en filigrane que l'on percevra dans ce volume l'erudition du professeur de philosophie medievale. Ces opera minora ne sont pas secondaires cependant: nombreuses, precises et riches, comme des miniatures, elles dessinent un portrait neuf et revelent un itineraire intellectuel singulier et meconnu.<br />

<strong>Details: </strong>The MHSPC is a three-day, pre-read, workshop-style conference on the Mount Holyoke College campus in South Hadley, Massachusetts.<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Everyone in the world is invited to submit a paper, or to volunteer to be a commentator or session chair, but conference attendance is limited to those on the conference program (and also to members of the conference program committee, the assistant conference organizers, and members of the MHC philosophy department). This is partly due to funding and logistical constraints, and partly due to the fact that the MHSPC is a workshop-style conference that involves in-depth discussions of works-in-progress.</div>

</ul>
<strong> "Angelicum Academy at Holy Apostles College"</strong><br />
<strong><br /></strong>
1) It enables students to acquire an Associate's degree in the Great Books totally online by the end of 12th grade and a Bachelor's degree as little as two years later.<br />
2) Thanks to the agreement between the Angelicum Academy and Holy Apostles College, total tuition cost for the BA degree is under $30,000, while the average total cost of a four-year BA in private colleges is $180,000+.<br />
3) It includes 12 credits of online Theology courses developed for the Angelicum Academy by Fr. Joseph Fessio, S.J.<br />
<br />
COLLEGE CREDITS: Angelicum Academy students may earn from 1-75 college credits while home schooling (in grades 9-12) or while in high school, or later. They may earn their accredited Associate’s degree (from Holy Apostles College -requires 60 credits) while in high school or home school (grades 9-12, or later), or they may take individual college-level courses for transfer elsewhere – to other of the hundreds of colleges and universities that accept ACE recommended credits. Students who earn their Associate’s degree while in home school (grades 9-12) or high school, may earn a further 15 credits then as well, enabling them to complete 75 credits towards their accredited bachelor’s degree (requires 120 credits) – that is nearly 2/3rds of their bachelor’s degree, for a fraction of the cost elsewhere.<br />
