  • Engaging with Insight of a Higher Order
    ENGAGING WITH INSIGHT OF A HIGHER ORDER RECONCILING COMPLEXITY AND SIMPLEXITY THROUGH MEMORABLE METAPHOR ANTHONY JUDGE Introduction Higher orders of perfection? Appreciation of higher orders of insight Complementarity of manifestations of perfection Re-cognition of higher orders of insight through "new thinking" Representation, memorability and metaphor Questionable metaphors of perfectibility meriting challenge Greater insight through holiness? Engaging with higher orders of insight Antithesis and anathema: challenge of the "Satanic"? Potential of mirroring in engaging with greater insight References Introduction This is an exploration of the process of encountering insight of a higher order -- or seemingly so. Understood in its most general terms, this could be an insight which explains everything (a Theory of Everything), a strategy which solves all problems (the Ultimate Panacea), an exemplar understood as embodying a higher order (a Leader, a Genius, a Master, a Guru, a Professor), or a totally transformative aesthetic experience (perhaps a Revelation). Also to be considered are the implications of possible higher orders of artificial intelligence from supercomputers, as well as contact with superintelligent extraterrestrials. The assumption here is that the sense of higher order implies an extraordinary sense of perfection -- relative to one's current ordinary experience. How then to engage with the experience of perfection? How to "handle" it in practice? The challenge is of course charmingly illustrated by the encounter with an unusually attractive person -- an encounter which may mysteriously conflate all the above (as when falling in love). The exploration is of current relevance to the extent that there is a degree of hope, if not anticipation, with respect to the emergence of an Ultimate Plan, perhaps articulated by an extraordinarily charismatic individual, perhaps in the light of some ultimate Theory of Everything.

  • Graduate Studies Housing Guide 2021
    Graduate Student Housing Guide College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Housing Guide Villanova University does not offer any on-campus housing for graduate students. This Housing Guide is meant to give you guidance in acclimating yourself to the Villanova area, help you find housing, give you tips about moving to the region, and introduce you to the Graduate Student Housing Blog (www.villanovagradhousing.com). Villanova’s Location Villanova is located in Villanova, Pennsylvania. Located in Radnor Township, Delaware County, Villanova is a suburb of Philadelphia, approximately 12 miles west of Center City Philadelphia. Villanova is part of a string of small towns known as the “Main Line.” The Main Line refers to the suburbs located west of the city along the SEPTA Paoli/Thorndale train line. Some of the towns along the Main Line, include, Merion Station, Narberth, Wynnewood, Ardmore, Haverford, Bryn Mawr, Rosemont, Villanova, Wayne, and Devon. Any of these towns would be no more than a 15-20 minute drive from Villanova’s campus. If you are using your GPS, you will want to use “800 Lancaster Avenue, Villanova, PA 19085” to locate campus. 1 Transportation Villanova’s campus is very conveniently located both by car and public transportation. By Car If you plan to bring a car, please be aware that Pennsylvania has some of the highest vehicle insurance rates in the country, as well as a more complicated automobile registration process. If it is at all possible and you do not need to establish residency, you may want to consider keeping your former license and registration.

  • 2009 Lecture
    2009 THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURE The Quaking Meeting Transforming our selves, our meetings and the more-than-human world Helen Gould In Meeting for Worship we may sense a mystical communion with God through each other. This is the gift of the ‘gathered meeting’. THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURES The lectures were instituted by Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) on its establishment in 1964. They are named after James Backhouse who, with his companion, George Washington Walker, visited Australia from 1832 to 1838. They travelled widely, but spent most of their time in Tasmania. It was through their visit that Quaker Meetings were first established in Australia. Coming to Australia under a concern for the conditions of convicts, the two men had access to people with authority in the young colonies, and with influence in Britain, both in Parliament and in the social reform movement. In meticulous reports and personal letters, they made practical suggestions and urged legislative action on penal reform, on the rum trade, and on land rights and the treatment of Aborigines. James Backhouse was a general naturalist and a botanist. He made careful observations and published full accounts of what he saw, in addition to encouraging Friends in the colonies and following the deep concern that had brought him to Australia. Australian Friends hope that this series of Lectures will bring fresh insights into the Truth, and speak to the needs and aspirations of Australian Quakerism. This particular lecture was delivered at the Australian National University, Canberra, on Monday, 5 January 2009, during the annual meeting of the Society.

  • 1.1 Early Modern Philosophy by Lorne Falkenstein Is Licensed Under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Noderivs 3.0
    1.1 1 BACON Preface to The great instauration; The new organon, Aphorisms 1-46; selections from The advancement of learning (The Works of Francis Bacon, James Spedding, Robert Ellis, and Douglas Heath, eds. 14 volumes (London: Longman, 1858-1874; reprinted in facsimilie Stuttgart: Frommann, 1962), vol. IV, pp. 13-17, 20-27, 47-57, and 294-98) Early modern philosophy began with a break from the past. For eighteen hundred years — from the time of the founding of the Stoic, Sceptical, and Epicurean schools of philosophy in Athens in the third century BCE up to the 1500’s — philosophers had done their work by commenting on that of their predecessors, particularly Aristotle, who was held in such high esteem that he was referred to simply as “the Philosopher.” Original philosophical work was so little respected that those who attempted something new would often deny authorship and present their work as the recently rediscovered text of some ancient philosopher. But in the early modern period philosophers suddenly began to criticize the old philosophy of Plato, Aristotle, and their medieval commentators, reject it, and offer what they claimed was something entirely new. There are a couple of reasons why this rebirth occurred when and where it did. One is that early modern Europe had undergone a religious reformation. During the medieval period, ancient philosophy, particularly the philosophy of Aristotle, had come to be intimately associated with the teachings of the established church. For many reformers, a rejection of the old philosophy was a natural concomitant of the rejection of the old religion.
