"The Noble Profession"
“In all these matters, we are the heirs and successors, not of Athens and Alexandria, but of Paris (c. 1200) and
Bologna (1088).” We stand in the tradition of the medieval “gilds of masters and students, universitas societas magistrorum discipulorumque… The fundamental organization is the same, the historic continuity is unbroken.
They created the university tradition of the modern world, that common tradition which belongs to all our institutions of higher learning, the newest as well as the oldest, and which all college and university men should know and cherish.”
~ The Rise of Universities (1923)

The name of this personal website - “Question 58” - refers to the Summa Theologica, Part II-II (Secunda Secundæ Partis) by Saint Thomas Aquinas, where he asks and gives his considered, insightful response to the question: "What is justice?" This is one of the philosophical questions that I have been thinking about for some time. In fact, this difficult and intriguing issue is at the center of my teaching and scholarship.
