    Interview with Victor Gourevitch April 25, 2011 Stephen Gregory: This is Stephen Gregory sitting with Victor Gourevitch, the William Griffin Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Wesleyan University. We’re here at the Leo Strauss Center at the University of Chicago. Victor, welcome. Victor Gourevitch: Thank you very much. Pleasure to be here. SG: You must have been one of Leo Strauss’s first students here at the University of Chicago. VG: I think I was. Yes. SG: He came here in 1949. VG: That’s right, and so did I. SG: Yes, and what was your first experience with Professor Strauss? VG: As I think I mentioned during the conference1, I went to see him more or less within my first week on campus to ask him for a tutorial on Spinoza. SG: So that would have been in autumn of 1949? VG: Yes, that’s what I remember. It’s just barely possible that it might have been in winter. I think it was in the autumn of ’49. SG: Right, and he would have barely unpacked his bags at that time. VC: That’s exactly right. SG: And what was his response? VG: Yes, I’ll do it. He was perfectly willing and enthusiastic. And it was material he of course knew and had thought about very carefully. We did the Ethics together, not the political writings. And I had done the Ethics in a course in the history of philosophy as an undergraduate in Wisconsin—I can’t remember with whom—so I felt that it was not totally virgin territory.

  • Herodotus and the Scythians : DE ALVAREZ 119
    Herodotus and the Scythians : DE ALVAREZ 119 Herodotus and the Scythians: Images and the Inquiry into the Soul LEO PAUL S. DE ALVAREZ Herodotus first began to interest me when I read the following sentence in Professor Leo Strauss’s essay, “Liberal Education and Responsibility”: “A hundred pages—no, ten pages—of Herodotus introduces us immeasurably better into the mysterious unity of oneness and variety in human things than many volumes written in the spirit predominant in our age.”1 After having studied Herodotus a little, I have been persuaded that Professor Strauss’s observation was correct. Unhappily, however, as has happened to Thucydides, Xenophon, Cicero, and almost all the classical authors, Herodotus is no longer regarded as necessary for a proper education. And where previous to the late nineteenth century every educated person would have had some acquaintance with Herodotus, one certainly cannot now assume that to be the case. We have replaced Herodotus with the social sciences, with a consequent LEO PAUL S. DE ALVAREZ is Professor Emeritus of Politics at the University of Dallas, where since 1964 he has taught extensively on topics including classical political philosophy, politics and the Bible, Machiavelli, and the works of Shakespeare. He has edited and translated Niccolò Machiavelli’s The Prince and is the author of The Machiavellian Enterprise: A Commentary on the Prince, as well as articles on the U.S. Constitution, the political religion of Abraham Lincoln, and the political philosophy of Shakespeare’s Greek plays. He is also the editor of Abraham Lincoln, the Gettysburg Address, and American Constitutionalism.

  • Herodotus: Father of History, Father of Lies
    Herodotus: Father of History, Father of Lies By David Pipes It was in the early days of the Peloponnesian War that Herodotus completed his History and published it. It was something new, something unique. It was not a chronicle, nor was it a local history. It was historia <1>-- researches into a major event of the past. It is no coincidence that Herodotus wrote his work at this time. In his History Herodotus tells of the Persian Empire, its rise to the height of imperialism, and its faltering and ultimate collapse. Some say that Athens, too, had reached the height of her imperialism, and the Peloponnesian war would bring to Athens what the war Herodotus wrote about brought to Persia. The author of the History wanted to do more than retell the events of the past, he want to prove a point and make sure the people of the future remembered and learned from the events of the past. He did not want to relate his story. He wanted to relate history. The Life and Travels of Herodotus People sometimes let their own experiences filter the way they interpret the events of the past. For this reason it is important that anyone seeking to study the work of another-- whether a history, a diary, or even a personal letter--should devote some effort to the study of that person's life. Only then can a student of history effectively judge the work of the historian in its proper light. Was the author trying to make a point? Was he hoping to convince the reader of something? If there is some deeper meaning to the history that someone creates, the key to unlocking that meaning will be found in his past.

  • Hobbes's Thucydides and the Colonial Law of Nations
    Hobbes’s Thucydides and the Colonial Law of Nations This article attempts to make sense of Thomas Hobbes’s 1628 translation of Thucydides, published as Eight Bookes of the Peloponesian Warres, in terms of seventeenth-century interest in and debates over the law of nations, or ius gentium. Its aim is to shift the scholarly focus on Hobbes’s translation from its most often assumed context, that of royalism, to what I will argue is a more fitting context, that of the law of nations, and by extension, the intellectual history of international law. Among Hobbes scholars, the fact that the first publication to which Hobbes gave his name was a classical translation is often noted but rarely considered in much depth.1 For many years, orthodoxy held that Hobbes started his brilliant philosophical career with a humanistic period before he encountered the Euclidean geometry that would occasion his turn from humanism to ‘political science’ – a turn variously construed as virtue to vice or vice to virtue, depending on the critic. Recent scholarship has rightly questioned such narratives, noting for instance that Hobbes late in his life wrote a verse autobiography and an anticlerical poem in Latin and translated Homer from the Greek. The insistence that Hobbes’s humanism persisted throughout his lifetime, however, does not fully account for the Thucydides translation: acknowledging Hobbes the humanist only spawns further questions. 2 Now that Hobbes’s Thucydides translation is seen less and less as something from which Hobbes would later turn, questions of what sort of project was signalled by the Thucydides translation come to the fore.
