Intellect And Will In Augustine's Confessions, Dan D. Crawford

Department of Philosophy: Faculty Publications

Augustine tells us in the Confessions that his reading of Cicero's Hortensius at the age of nineteen aroused in him a burning 'passion for the wisdom of eternal truth'. He was inspired 'to love wisdom itself, whatever it might be, and to search for it, pursue it, hold it, and embrace it firmly'. And thus he embarked on his arduous journey to the truth, which was at the same time a conversion to Catholic Christianity, and which culminated twelve years later in his experience in the garden in Milan.

In the first part of this paper I will trace Augustine's …

Hegel's Political Theory And Philosophy Of History, Philip J. Kain

Philosophy

Hegel's historical and political thought can best be understood if we understand its relationship to Rousseau's political theory and Kant's philosophy of history. Hegel's conception of the modem state closely resembles Rousseau's ideal community which was based upon rational freedom realized through a general will and reinforced by custom and tradition which shaped the character and interests of the citizens. However, Rousseau's community was utopian-it could not be realized in the modem world. It was incompatible with commerce and trade which promote particular interest and thus corrupt custom and erode the general will. These matters will be discussed in Section …

in this issue. . .

JUDITH WEISSMAN revisions the later work of Emily Dickinson as that of a lucid, sane, generous, less volcanic woman more at ease with herself and her beliefs. A specialist in nineteenth-century poetry and fiction and Professor of English at Syracuse University, Weissman published Half Savage and Hardy and Free: Woman and Rural Radicalism in the Nineteenth-Century Novel last year. She is presently working on a book dealing with poetry and the theory of the bicameral mind.

The Vorpel Blade: A Philosophical Adventure In Meaning, Patrick Cely

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Fol.r major accounts of linguistic meaning are considered. A referential theory of meaning as developed by Bertrand Russell is considered and rejected on the grounds of some critical observations made by P. F. Strawson. An instrumentalistic theory of meaning as adopted by Ludwig Wittgenstein is next considered and found after an evaluation by C. S. Chihara and J. A. Fodor to be inconclusive. A behavioristic theory of meaning as advocated by Charles W. Morris is considered next. Based on questions posed by L. O. Kattsoff this theory of meaning is found to be, at best, incomplete. Finally, an ideational account …
