FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 17 December 2019 DIOCESE OF ROCKVILLE CENTRE NAMES NEW VICAR FOR HISPANIC MINISTRY AND EVANGELIZATION ROCKVILLE CENTRE, NEW YORK – December 17, 2019 – The Diocese of Rockville Centre (drvc.org) announced that Idente Missionary Father Luis Miguel Romero, pastor of the Church of Our Lady of Loretto, Hempstead, has been appointed Vicar of Hispanic Ministry and Evangelization, Diocese of Rockville Centre. Father Romero will continue to serve as Pastor of Our Lady of Loretto. “Father Luis Romero is a global Churchman who lives the Idente Missionary charism in an inspirational way,” said Most Reverend John O. Barres, Bishop of Rockville Centre. “His pastoral, formational and evangelizing leadership at Our Lady of Loretto will translate well into his diocesan leadership as the Vicar for Hispanic Ministry and Evangelization. He also has an exceptional capacity, with his extensive academic background in religion and science, to address how the truths of our Catholic faith in regard to the Gospel of Life, Catholic Social Justice teaching and the Church’s advocacy in history of ethical scientific development need to be brought directly and compellingly into the public square.” The Vicar for Hispanic Ministry and Evangelization cooperates with the Bishop of Rockville Centre to promote the full participation of the Hispanic Faithful in the life of the Church. The office serves as a resource to all pastors and people serving the Hispanic Catholic community. “I am so grateful to Bishop Barres for this special assignment in serving the Hispanic community of our diocese,” said Father Romero. “With a humble spirit, I thank our Bishop and repeat what Christ said about himself: ‘I did not come to be served, but to serve.’” About Father Luis Miguel Romero Fernandez Luis Miguel Romero Fernandez was born in Palencia, north of Spain in 1954, and grew up in Andalusia. -

Journal of French Philosophy Volume 17, Number 1, Spring 2007 Slaughterbench of Humanisms: The 1987 Heidegger Affair in Intellectual-Historical Perspective Stefanos Geroulanos In the fall of 1987, one of the most significant affairs in recent intellectual history erupted in France when the unknown Chilean writer Victor Farias published a well-researched but philosophically unimpressive book on Martin Heidegger’s Nazism. To publishers abroad, notably in Germany, the volume rang a hollow bell, and remained unprinted, as debates on existentialism, Heidegger’s engagement with the Nazi party, and his continuing political position in the fifties lay in the past.1 But in France, despite a certain academic awareness of Heidegger’s Nazi engagement, the effect was very different:2 Farias struck a nerve, and suddenly the intellectual milieu erupted into furious polemics. This 1987 Heidegger Affair has long been read as the final curtain for a movement that lent support to several epistemological ruptures in French philosophy (according to some of the more positive accounts) or flourished as an uncritical and pretentious audience for Heidegger (in the less generous ones). Yet although it provided a number of signs indicating shifts in intellectual tendencies, the affair has never been seriously treated as a barometer for the recent past of French thought.3 The present essay attempts to offer a necessarily schematic intellectual- historical description of the 1987 affair as an intellectual event emerging with the rise of a neo-humanist politics that -

French Nietzscheanism and the Emergence of Poststructuralism
1 French Nietzscheanism and the Emergence of Poststructuralism Alan D. Schrift Grinnell College 1968 may be the watershed year in recent French cultural history, but by the time French students began tearing up the cobblestones of the Latin Quarter and occupying the Sorbonne, a philosophical revolution that would change the course of French philosophy for the remainder of the 20th century was already well under way: in 1966, Michel Foucault published The Order of Things; that same year, in October, Jacques Derrida presented “Structure, Sign, and Play in the Discourse of the Human Sciences” at the critically important conference on “Languages of Criticism and the Sciences of Man” at Johns Hopkins University, and the following year saw the publication of his triumvirate Of Grammatology, Writing and Difference, and Speech and Phenomena; and Gilles Deleuze’s two theses – Difference and Repetition and Spinoza and the Problem of Expression – while published in 1968, were completed before the events of May. What these works announce is the posting of structuralism, that is, a distinctly philosophical response to the challenge posed to philosophical thinking by the emergence of structuralism as the dominant intellectual paradigm in the late 1950s, and collectively they set the philosophical agenda for the remainder of the century in terms of what we, outside France, refer to as “French philosophy.” There are a number of stories that might be told about the emergence of structuralism, but I’d like to highlight one – namely, that structuralism rose in popularity proportionate to the fall from hegemony within the French academic and intellectual world of philosophy as the master discourse. -

Deleuze and Religion
13 The doctrine of univocity Deleuze’s ontology of immanence Daniel W. Smith ‘If God does not exist, everything is permissible.’ Deleuze likes to invert this Dostoyevskian formula from The Brothers Karamazov, because, he says, the opposite is in fact the case: it is with God that everything is permissible. This is obviously true morally, since the worst atrocities have always managed to find a divine justification, and belief in God has never been a guarantor of morality. But it is also true aesthetically and philosophically. Medieval art, for example, is filled with images of God, and it would be tempting to see this merely as an inevitable constraint of the era, imposed from without by the Church. Deleuze suggests a different hypothesis. In the hands of great painters like El Greco, Tintoretto and Giotto, this constraint became the condition of a radical emancipation: in painting the divine, one could take literally the idea that God must not be represented, an idea that resulted in an extraordinary liberation of line, colour, form, and movement. With God, painting found a freedom it would not have had otherwise – a properly pictorial atheism.1 The same was true in philosophy. Until the revolution of the eighteenth century, philosophers were constantly speaking of God, to the point where philosophy seemed completely compromised by theology and the demands of the Church. But, in the hands of great philosophers such as Spinoza and Leibniz, this constraint became the condition of an equally extraordinary liberation. With God, philosophical concepts were freed from the traditional taskthat had been imposed onthem –therepresentationofthings –and allowedtoassumefantasticdimensions. -
1 Jacques Derrida: a Biographical Note Mauro Senatore
1 Jacques Derrida: A biographical note Mauro Senatore Jacques Derrida was born on July 15, 1924, in El Biar, in the suburbs of Algiers, from a Jewish French family. His parents Haiim Aaron Prosper Charles and Georgette Sultana Esther Safar gave him the forename of Jackie. At this time, French Judaism in Algeria had undergone a pro- gressive assimilation to the bourgeois Parisian life. Things changed from 1940, when, among other anti-Semitic measures, it was established that there would be a fixed number of Jewish children in primary and sec- ondary education. Consequently, Jackie was excluded from the lycée he was attending in Ben Aknoun, nearby El Biar. He could go back to school only the following year. In 1947, he entered the Lycée Émile-Félix- Gautier, in the centre of Algiers. Later, he registered for the hypokhâgne class at the Lycée Bugeaud, a cycle of preparatory classes to take the exam for the École Normale Supérieure. He decided not take the exam in Algiers but, in 1949, moved to Paris where he gained a place at the Louis-le-Grand, the most prestigious of Parisian lycées. In 1952, Jackie passed the exam for the École Normale Supérieure (ENS). There he had the first encounter with Louis Althusser who had been caïman in philosophy since 1948, namely, the teacher responsible for the preparatory classes for the agrégation. Over the summer spent in El Biar, he immersed himself in the reading of Husserl’s Ideas I (translated and commented upon by Paul Ricoeur). In November, he began work on the problem of genesis in Husserl’s philosophy as the subject of his diplôme d’études supérieures. -
The History of Continental Philosophy
4 gilles deleuze Daniel W. Smith Gilles Deleuze1 was one of the most infl uential and prolifi c French philosophers of the second half of the twentieth century. “I consider him to be the greatest contemporary French philosopher,” Michel Foucault once said, adding famously that “perhaps one day this century will be known as Deleuzian.”2 Despite such accolades, Deleuze remains diffi cult to classify as a thinker. Th e labels most frequently used to interpret contemporary French philosophy are inapplicable to Deleuze, since he was neither a phenomenologist, a structuralist, a hermeneuti- cian, a Heideggerian, nor even a “postmodernist.” Whereas many French philos- ophers (Levinas, Ricoeur, Derrida, Lyotard) began their careers with studies of Husserl, Deleuze wrote his fi rst book on Hume, and always considered himself an empiricist. Most dauntingly perhaps, his published oeuvre at fi rst sight seems to be marked by a rather bewildering eclecticism, including constructive works such as Diff erence and Repetition and Logic of Sense, numerous monographs in the history of philosophy (on Hume, Nietzsche, Bergson, Kant, Spinoza, and 1. Gilles Deleuze (January 18, 1925–November 4, 1995; born and died in Paris, France) was educated at the Sorbonne (1944–48), and received a doctorat d’état there in 1968. His infl u- ences included Bergson, Heidegger, Hume, Kant, Lautmann, Leibniz, Maimon, Nietzsche, Sartre, Simondon, and Spinoza, and he held appointments at the Lycée d’Amiens (1948–53), Lycée d’Orleans (1953–55), Lycée Louis- le- Grand (1955–57), Sorbonne (1957–60), Centre National de Recherche Scientifi que (1960–64), University of Lyon (1964–69), and University of Paris VIII–Vincennes- St.
