Philosophy vs. Theology Open to the Public Philosophy Department Alumni Newsletter Page 2 The 2011 Aquinas Lecture Our 2011 Aquinas Lecture had originally been scheduled for February 3 rd , close to the feast of St. Thomas on January 28 th . However, it had to be canceled due to inclement weather. (Do you know that UD had three snow days in the winter of 2010–2011?) Rescheduled for September 29 th , the lecture this year featured Professor Robert George, the well-known natural-law expert and Catholic public intellec- tual from Princeton. Professor George not only delivered the Aquinas Lecture (“Natural Law, God, and Human Dig- nity”), but also led a seminar on John Rawls. In the seminar George argued, contra Rawls, that even in the age of highly fragmented societies composed of people with a wide range of different opinions, rational debate in the public place must invoke fundamental principles. Professor George was also kind enough to grant two interviews, one to the University News and the other to Peter Antich, a Philosophy senior who is currently president of the UD Philosophy Club. An abridged version of Mr. Antich’s interview appears in this newsletter. By the way, our 2012 Aquinas Lecturer—the thirtieth in a series of distinguished speakers that started in 1982—will be Eleonore Stump, a Thomist from Saint Louis University. More about Professor Stump in the next newsletter! Dr. Rosemann presenting the Aquinas Medal to Professor Robert P. George A Royal Visit at UD From November 14 to 16, 2011, the University of Dallas had the honor and pleasure to welcome His Serene High- ness Prince Nikolaus of Liechtenstein and his wife, Her Royal Highness Princess Margaretha. The royal couple stayed on our campus in connection with an award that the Thanks-Giving Foundation of Dallas bestowed on Prince Nikolaus for his charitable work. In order to give our royal visitors an impression not only of our physical campus, but also—and more importantly—of the intellectual atmosphere of the University of Dallas, the Philosophy Department or- ganized an academic seminar in the morning of November 15. Both Prince Nikolaus and Princess Margaretha were in attendance. The topic of the seminar was chosen in consul- tation with the Prince, who expressed interest in Pope Benedict’s recent address to the German Bundestag . In its English translation, it is entitled, “The Listening Heart: Re- flections on the Foundations of Law.” In this address, the Holy Father offers reflections on the need to ground law in fundamental metaphysical and anthropological truths that are accessible to reason; the role of Christianity in European political life, he argues, has historically been to strengthen such rational inquiry, rather than to impose biblically based laws on the political order. UD professors Bainard Cowan, Richard Dougherty, William Frank, Taylor Marshall, and Prince Nikolaus and Princess Margaretha of Liechtenstein Philipp Rosemann commented on the papal address, before the Prince himself concluded with remarks on the role of the Catholic faith in contemporary European public life. A lively question-and-answer session followed. Philosophy Department Alumni Newsletter Page 3 An Interview with our 2011 Aquinas Medalist, Robert P. George Robert P.

  • Dialogical Breakdown and Covid-19: Solidarity and Disagreement in a Shared World
    Journal of Applied Hermeneutics ISSN: 1927-4416 December 1, 2020 ãThe Author(s) 2020 Dialogical Breakdown and Covid-19: Solidarity and Disagreement in a Shared World Cynthia R. Nielsen & David Liakos Abstract This article considers the limitations, but also the insights, of Gadamerian hermeneutics for understanding and responding to the crisis precipitated by the Covid-19 pandemic. Our point of departure is the experience of deep disagreements amid the pandemic, and our primary example is ongoing debates in the United States about wearing masks. We argue that, during this dire situation, interpersonal mutual understanding is insufficient for resolving such bitter disputes. Rather, following Gadamer’s account of our dialogical experience with an artwork, we suggest that our encounter with the virus gives rise to new ways of seeing and experiencing ourselves and the world. Further, we draw on Gadamer’s account of the fusion of horizons to show how even competing perspectives on wearing masks arise within a shared space of meaning created by the virus. These insights provide hope for an improved model of political dialogue in the world of Covid-19. Keywords Covid-19, Dialogue, Hans-Georg Gadamer, Pandemic, Polarization, Political Disagreement In the last analysis, Goethe’s statement ‘Everything is a symbol’ is the most comprehen- sive formulation of the hermeneutical idea. It means that everything points to some other thing. This ‘everything’ is not an assertion about each being, indicating what it is, but an assertion as to how it is to encounter man’s understanding. There is nothing that cannot mean something to it. But the statement implies something else as well: nothing comes forth just in the one meaning that is offered to us.

  • Re-Imagining Hermeneutics
    Postscripts 7.1 (2011) 87–122 Postscripts ISSN (print) 1743-887x doi: 10.1558/post.v7.1 Postscripts ISSN (online) 1743-8888 Re-Imagining Text — Re-Imagining Hermeneutics CHRISTOPHER DUNCANSON-HALES SAINT PAUL UNIVERSITY [email protected] ABSTRACT With the advent of the digital age and new mediums of communication, it is becoming increasingly important for those interested in the interpretation of religious text to look beyond traditional ideas of text and textuality to find the sacred in unlikely places. Philosophical and theological hermeneutics have been invigorated by a de-regionalization of the interpretation of texts that cor- responds with this journal’s mandate to “cross traditional boundaries, bring- ing different disciplinary tools to the process of analysis and opening up a sus- tained dialogue between and among scholars and others who are interested in religion, textuality, media, and mediation and the contemporary world.” Paul Ricoeur’s phenomenological reorientation of classical hermeneutics from romanticized notions of authorial intent and psychological divina- tions to a serious engagement with the “science of the text” is a herme- neutical tool that opens up an important dialogue between the interpreter, the world of the text, and the contemporary world in front of the text. This article examines three significant insights that Paul Ricoeur contrib- utes to our expanding understanding of text. First under scrutiny will be Ricoeur’s de-regionalization of classic hermeneutics culminating in his understanding of Dasein (Being) as “being-in-the-world,” allowing mean- ing to transcend the physical boundaries of the text. Next, Ricoeur’s three- fold under-standing of traditionality/Traditions/tradition as the “chain of interpretations” through which religious language transcends the tem- poral boundary of historicity will be explored.

  • APPRAISING the COUNTERPOINT: Bifocal Readings of Literary
    APPRAISING THE COUNTERPOINT: Bifocal Readings of Literary Landscapes in the American Renaissance and Post-Apartheid South Africa Cleo Beth Theron Dissertation presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of the Arts and Social Sciences at Stellenbosch University Supervisors: Dr Megan Jones and Dr Dawid de Villiers March 2021 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za DECLARATION By submitting this dissertation electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof (save to the extent explicitly otherwise stated), that reproduction and publication thereof by Stellenbosch University will not infringe any third party rights and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 12 October 2020 Copyright © 2021 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za ABSTRACT This study constitutes an experimental bifocal reading that was prompted by historical and literary parallels and convergences between the United States and South Africa. In particular, the study demonstrates several thematic similarities between literature produced during the “American Renaissance” in the mid-nineteenth century and post-apartheid South Africa. Bifocalism is based on conceptions of world literature as 1) a domain that brings into contact texts from different geographical contexts, and 2) a mode of reading comparatively. Bifocalism is employed in conjunction with Edward Said’s characterisation of contrapuntalism, a means to reappraise long-standing interpretations or bring to the fore subtle or occluded features of one text through a reading of another placed alongside it.
