"In this book, philosopher Thomas Langan explores "virtual reality" - an inherently contradictory phrase - and the effects of technology on our very being. In our present-day high-technology environment, making simple, everyday decisions is difficult because the virtual world we've created doesn't necessarily operate according to the old "common sense." To retain our intellectual fitness, we must, Langan argues, consider these essential questions : If virtual reality is, in fact, reality, what is this life that we are caught up in? What is being within the context of virtual reality? How can we establish a system for distinguishing truth from fiction?"--BOOK JACKET. Includes index. JOUR. B105.M4 L355 2000. 17. Ricœur, Paul.

Philosophy. History -- Philosophy. Political science -- Philosophy. ix, 273 p. ; 24 cm. "This period covered by the material published in this volume marks the transition in Eric Voegelin's career from Louisiana to Munich. After twenty years in the United States, in 1958 Voegelin accepted an invitation to fill the political science chair at Ludwig Maximilian University, a position left vacant throughout the Nazi period and last occupied by the famous Max Weber, who had died in 1920." "The themes most prominent in the fourteen items reprinted here reflect the concerns of a transition, not only in a scholar's career, and in the momentous shifts in world politics taking place around him, but also in the development of his understanding of the stratification of reality and the attendant demands for a science of human affairs adequate to the challenges posed by the persistent crisis of the West in its latest configurations and by contemporary philosophy." "Several of the items herein originated as talks to a specific organization on problems facing German democratization and the development of a market economy amid the ruins of a fragmented culture and infrastructure in a society without historically evolved institutional supports for a satisfactory social and political order. Accordingly, pragmatic matters occupy a central place in a number of these pieces, especially the overriding question of how Germany could move from an illiberal and ideological political order into a modern liberal democratic one."--BOOK JACKET.

As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design.

    GOLDEN AGE HEROES: THE AMERICAN MYTH OF WOODWARD AND BERNSTEIN A Senior Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in American Studies By Lauren Louise Sinclair Washington, D.C. April 27, 2016 GOLDEN AGE HEROES: THE AMERICAN MYTH OF WOODWARD AND BERNSTEIN Lauren Louise Sinclair Thesis Adviser: Professor Brian Hochman, Ph. D. ABSTRACT The Watergate scandal of the 1970s is one of the greatest presidential scandals in American history. In an elaborate scheme in quest for more power, President Richard Nixon and his administration performed unconstitutional acts of corruption while in the White House. These acts were brought to the public by the media and the investigative reporting done on the scandal. Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward are two of the most famous investigative journalists in American history due to their work on the scandal at The Washington Post. After the scandal had passed and Richard Nixon resigned from his presidency, Woodward and Bernstein wrote a book in 1974 telling of their experience reporting on Watergate titled All the President’s Men. This book was then made into an iconic film in 1976. The release of the book and film created a narrative of the two reporters as heroic journalists and propelled them into the public eye and popular culture. Woodward and Bernstein became poster children of investigative journalism, and my research aims to highlight the portrayal of the David and Goliath archetype applied to the journalists reporting the wrongdoings of the Nixon administration.

  • Lord, Kristin
    CPL Online 3.1 Fall 2006 Kristin O. Lord Page 1 Imagining Nelson Mandela in Ancient Rome: A New Approach to Intermediate Latin Prose Composition1 Kristin O. Lord Department of Archaeology and Classical Studies Wilfrid Laurier University (Canada) For the past three years I have been designing a series of exercises in English to Latin prose translation to complement a third and fourth semester university reading course in Latin prose and poetry. In the last year I have begun to extend my work to cover the first two semesters as well, an area which intersects with the high school curriculum. Although I have designed a fair complement of traditional military and political passages and material based on social history, I expect students to translate an increasing number of texts which are either unexpurgated or subject only to minor adaptations. For this reason I tend to ‘mine’ much of what I read—or would like to reread—for its suitability for translation into Latin prose. Each of the pieces ultimately chosen is meant to engage an idea as well as to illustrate various issues of syntax and style, but some encapsulate my overall approach more fully than others. A favorite page from Nelson Mandela’s Long Walk to Freedom is perhaps the most striking illustration of the changes in both Classical scholarship and the world as a whole since the publication, nearly a century ago, of the textbook which I used to use. In this passage Mandela describes the polling station where he voted for the first time in South Africa in 1994: The images of South Africans going to the polls that day are burned in my memory.

    PREZ TRIVIAL QUIZ AND ANSWERS Below is a Presidential Trivia Quiz and Answers. GRADING CRITERIA: 33 questions, 3 points each, and 1 free point. If the answer is a list which has L elements and you get x correct, you get x=L points. If any are wrong you get 0 points. You can take the quiz one of three ways. 1) Take it WITHOUT using the web and see how many you can get right. Take 3 hours. 2) Take it and use the web and try to do it fast. Stop when you want, but your score will be determined as follows: If R is the number of points and T 180R is the number of minutes then your score is T + 1: If you get all 33 right in 60 minutes then you get a 100. You could get more than 100 if you do it faster. 3) The answer key has more information and is interesting. Do not bother to take the quiz and just read the answer key when I post it. Much of this material is from the books Hail to the chiefs: Political mis- chief, Morals, and Malarky from George W to George W by Barbara Holland and Bland Ambition: From Adams to Quayle- the Cranks, Criminals, Tax Cheats, and Golfers who made it to Vice President by Steve Tally. I also use Wikipedia. There is a table at the end of this document that has lots of information about presidents. THE QUIZ BEGINS! 1.

    TWO FEMINIST VISIONS: SOCIAL JUSTICE FEMINISM AND EQUAL RIGHTS, 1 899-1 940 John Thomas McGuire College at Oneonta, State University of New York n July 12, 1937, Emma Guffey Miller, the long-time Democratic party broker in Pennsylvania, wrote an urgent letter to Eleanor down" Roosevelt.' Miller asserted that she did not wish to "ttear] the Women's Division of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), but she believed that the leader of the Women's Division, Mary Williams (Molly) Dewson, did not understand the high level of discontent among party women. Miller argued that this dissatisfaction arose because many party women did not receive appointments to patronage jobs after the successful 1936 election and Dewson ignored the formidable achievements of women's 2 Democratic party clubs throughout the country. Although Miller scribbled in the margin of her letter that "my only thought is to strengthen the party," she failed to mention the tensions that caused her to write. Since early 1936 she had fought for control of the Women's Division against Molly Dewson. The fight intensified when Miller received DNC chair- man James A.

In addition, Miller's feminist vision, which centered on ratifica- tion of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), differed from Dewson's vision 3 of social justice feminism. The participation of women in Pennsylvania politics has received rela- tively little attention from historians.4 This article addresses that gap by examining how two Pennsylvania women influenced feminist political thought in the United States in the early twentieth century.
