Re: Thursday, May 10, 2007
Dave, your mention of Polanyi and Don Millholland piqued my curiosity and lo and behold I found a well-underlined, old, paperback copy of Polanyi's, The tacit Dimension, on one of my bookshelves that was used in one of the philosophy seminars held at Carroll Feagins' house. Ditto on the denseness of Polanyi and add Ernst Cassirer, Heidegger, Whitehead, and Wittgenstein to that list. Actually, I still have a fondness for Whitehead as I participated in a study group on Whitehead after graduating from Guilford with professor Frederic Crownfield who audited a class with Whitehead at Harvard --that sort of connection provided me some insight if not understanding of Whitehead. On a side note, Arthur Koestler's Darkness at Noon was required reading in one of the core curriculum English courses at Guilford. By the way, Ru Sabre, a new instructor at Guilford then was also an interesting fellow.
