Madigan Philosophy, St.John Fisher College, Rochester, New York This lecture to the London Ethical Society was given on 18 December 2011 as part of the festival marking the 20th Anniversary of Philosophy Now magazine, of which Timothy Madigan is a US Editor “A naturalistic conception of things is a great work of imagination – greater, I think, than any dramatic or moral mythology: it is a conception fit to inspire great poetry, and in the end, perhaps, it will prove the only conception able to inspire it.” George Santayana (1863–1952), “Lucretius”, in Three Philosophical Poets (TPP:27 1) Quotations are from the 1954 Doubleday edition of Three Philosophical Poets; bibliographic information for all references can be found in the Select Bibliography at the end of this article. Defining Humanism In 1951, Warren Allen Smith, then a graduate student in English at Columbia University, working under the auspices of his professor, the noted scholar Lionel Trilling, attempted to come up with a definition of the meaning of the term ‘Humanism’ by writing to several prominent individuals — including Thomas Mann, Sinclair Lewis, John Dos Passos, Henry Hazlitt and Lewis Mumford — who had been identified in one way or another as ‘humanists’. One of the personages he contacted was the philosopher, poet and novelist George Santayana, who was living in retirement in Rome. Santayana, then nearing the end of his long life, responded in length to Smith’s letter, penning his reply on 9 February 1951. “Dear Mr. Smith,” he wrote: In my old-fashioned terminology, a Humanist means a person saturated by the humanities: Humanism is something cultural: an accomplishment, not a doctrine. This might be something like what you call ‘classical humanism.’ But unfortunately there is also a metaphysical or cosmological humanism or moralism which maintains that the world is governed by human interests and an alleged universal moral sense. This cosmic humanism for realists, who believe that knowledge has a prior and independent object which sense or thought signify, might be some religious orthodoxy, for idealists and phenomenalists an oracular destiny or dialectical evolution dominating the dream of life. This ‘humanism’ is what I call egotism or moralism, and reject altogether. Naturalism, on the contrary, is something to which I am so thoroughly wedded that I like to call it materialism, so as to prevent all confusion with romantic naturalism like Goethe’s, for instance, or that of Bergson. Mine is the hard, non-humanistic naturalism of the Ionian philosophers, of Democritus, Lucretius, and Spinoza. [The Letters of George Santayana, 8:328] Thus, in a letter written shortly before his own demise, Santayana Ethical Record, January 2012 3 expresses his continued interest in, and commitment to, the ‘hard naturalism’ or materialism of Lucretius. Indeed, throughout the many volumes of Santayana’s collected letters one can read of his appreciation for Lucretius’s great work, De Rerum Natura. In a letter to a friend dated 16 January 1887, for instance, Santayana writes: “By the way, do you ever read Lucretius? If you don’t, I should advise you to try him. He fills me with the greatest enthusiasm and delight. The arguments are often childish, but the energy, the flow, the magnificence and solidity are above everything.” (1:46) Santayana Excited by Lucretius’s De Rerum Natura What so excited Santayana about this work? First of all, he himself was often torn between devoting himself to philosophical analysis and writing creative poetry. While a prolific author of works in professional philosophy, his first published book was entitled Sonnets and Other Verses (1894). In many ways, he exemplified the modern dichotomy between science and the humanities. A gifted versifier, he was also trained as a student at Harvard in strict logical argumentation. For much of his long life, Santayana struggled between the desire to follow his creative flights of fancy and the duties of adhering to factual matters in explication. In Lucretius he found a soul mate who seemed to have somehow been able to combine both. In addition, Santayana greatly admired Lucretius’s ability to not only bring poetry and scientific understanding together, but to do so in an extended work, rather than in the short verses and sonnets which he himself was able to produce. Santayana was to write a three volume autobiography, which described in detail what he considered to be the three phases of his life. Volume One dealt with his birth in Madrid, Spain, his coming to America with his mother when he was eight, and his time growing up in Boston and attending Harvard University as a student, where he came to feel himself to be a pilgrim in a land of Puritans (his one and only novel is significantly entitled The Last Puritan). Volume Two describes his time as an instructor of philosophy at Harvard, where he both completed his Ph.D. under William James, and then joined his teacher as a colleague and fellow professor, from 1886–1912.

CONCLUSION 117 BIBLIOGRAPHY 128 111 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Thirty-nine years after English readers were introduced to the Byronic Hero prototype in the first two cantos of Lord Byron's Childe Harold's Pilgrimage in March of 1812, Herman Melville published Moby-Dick in America. Although Melville's monomaniac Captain Ahab is separated from Byron's Giaour, Conrad, and Lara by a continent as well as by the chronology of two generations, the heroically defiant whaling captain from Nantucket is peculiarly akin to Byron's solitary, dark-visaged heroes. The striking resemblances of Ahab and the protagonists of Byron's Oriental tales, however, have been largely ignored heretofore, despite the fact that several' parallel studies of Melville and Byron have been made. Peter L. Thorslev, Jr.'s fleeting remark in the intro- duction to his The Byronic Hero that "the most terrible figure in our classical American literature, Captain Ahab, has much of the Byronic Hero's aspect, of his dark soul" practically stands alone."'" Among the initial problems to be considered at the onset of a study of Anab as a Byronic Hero is that of the extent ^"Peter L.

  • Certificate for Approving the Dissertation
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of David Christopher Washington Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy ________________________________ Director (Dr. Laura Mandell) __________________________________ Reader (Dr. Tobias Menely) __________________________________ Reader (Dr. Mary Jean Corbett) __________________________________ Graduate School Representative (Dr. Jonathan Strauss) ABSTRACT FACING SYMPATHY: SPECIES FORM AND ENLIGHTENMENT INDIVIDUALISM by Chris Washington My dissertation identifies a significant aporia in Enlightenment thought concerning human and animal life. Eighteenth-century moral philosophy, I argue, predicates social relations on face-to-face identification. However, sympathetic identification limits itself to human form. Sympathy, like species form, promotes twin impulses: the formation of group identities and the exclusion of dissimilar others. Consequently, sympathy recognizes animals as other and excludes them from the social sphere. Eighteenth-century novels, for instance, struggle with the limitations of sympathy, brimming with human sensibility although equivocal about whether it can be directed toward animals. These concerns about the nature of sensibility and affect animate not only eighteenth-century sentimental novels but also surface as one of the central problems of Romanticism. Conventionally, the Romantic period has long been understood as a fulfillment of the Enlightenment promise that autonomous human subjects

It discusses the link between the poetical movement of Romanticism in Brazil and in Great Britain, showing how European Romanticism was received and practiced in Brazil especially focusing on the image of Byron as the disillusioned and macabre hero to inspire the Brazilian. Chapters include The Social Context in the Romantic Brazil, Romanticism in Brazil, The Epicurus Society and Life in São Paulo, Byron and Álvares de Azevedo, and Byron Translated. Romanticism in Brazil played a key role on defining a national cultural and literary identity in the recently independent country that was Brazil.

    Walt Whitman: Death, the Afterlife, and His Poetry of Contact by Brian Burlage A thesis presented for the B.A. degree with Honors in The Department of English University of Michigan Winter 2016 © 2016 Brian Burlage For Gary Rains and Ralph Taylor. Acknowledgments So many people helped make this thesis possible, and I am grateful to have the space here to thank them formally. First, I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Professor Gregg Crane, whose keen attention to detail, vast knowledge of the field, and insightful feedback kept me confident in my ability to produce this document. There are few people who can speak so passionately and intelligently about the subject of nineteenth-century American poetry, and I was very fortunate to get to work with someone who can. Thank you again, Professor Crane, for the many hours you have spent looking over drafts and meeting with me to discuss this project. Without your guidance, these words would not be here today. I owe many, many thanks to Professor Kerry Larson, who aptly and presciently pointed me toward Professor Crane. If not for your Transcendental Literature class, Professor Larson, I would never have had the privilege to write about Whitman. I could never have imagined how deeply affected I would be by the writing of Emerson, Thoreau, and Fuller, among others. You brought an astounding level of academic rigor to the classroom and taught me to take texts word by word for what they are. Thank you also for helping me hone my early ideas and organization. I would also like to thank our honors instructor, Professor Sean Silver.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and the estate of Carl Rakosi, dated May 27, 2005.
