Dear Ellis, Here are a few more web searches I pulled off the visitors log today. Don't think it is a fluke. But I won't burden you with more of them. 1....
I wanted to second Ellis Sandoz's commendation for our moderator's fine job in organizing the dinner in Chicago and his moving presentation on the excellent...
I must mention that just before EVS Chicago I received a message from Macon Boczek telling me that she and her husband would not be able to join us in Chicago...
Hi, Fritz-- Thanks for the info about Macon and Frank. I will keep them and theirs in my prayers. It was a pleasure to dine and spend time with you in...
Thank you so much for your thoughts and prayers. My husband came home from the Cleveland Clinic September 8 and he is doing very well in his recovery ...
I thought it was interesting that Voegelin feels it is important in Vol V to address the issue of psychological projection as a possible objection to the...
Does anyone here know if Voegelin ever mentioned, in writing or in lectures or conversation, a book by Hugo Rahner entitled (as translated into English),...
Tilo Schabert gave a paper at EVS in Chicago this past September called "Eric Voegelin's Workshop." Prof. Schabert spent years working side-by-side with...

The silence from list members over the past two months has something to do with the US presidential election, as far as I can see. There hasn't been much...
Do not despair - there won't be an ascendance of a Hitler - Bush is not a Fascist after all and I don't think that he is going to take Texas out of the Union.....

There is a basic consensus among Americans now that there is nothing worth fighting for--really fighting for--among ourselves. This is no doubt a good thing...
I am so relieved to hear that Europeans have sent election monitors to the U.S.! America is not like Europe. Americans are overwhelmingly non-ideological...
Hans-Jörg Sigwart at EVS in Boston two years ago made for me a stunning observation. It almost knocked me out of my chair: "Political communities exist only...
Perhaps Voegelin would simply observe that a President who wishes to be successful has to be able to communicate effectively, something which Bush does not...
I agree with this observation. I mentioned how I think the left feels. On the right, there is a great deal of angst as well, regarding what we might describe...
Much has been said and written to the effect that 9/11 changed everything. But if one looks at today's election, you'd have to conclude that it changed...
It's good to have the view from Germany where, unfortunately, the difference between the USA and European states is that this nation is compelled to act...
Clinton ran to the right of Bush? I don't think so. I think it's more accurate to say Clinton ran on the basis of an economic plan during a recession. I...
[The following information is two weeks old. Sorry.] The Eric Voegelin Society has been awarded six panels for the American Political Science Association...
Not much to do with Voegelin, directly, but...the recession was over by the time Clinton was nominated. He ran on a middle class tax cut and ending welfare as...
The recession brought about by the Gulf War was still very much alive during the election season. A recovery did slowly begin near the end of 1992, but that...
The last 40 years of US politics has served to diagnose the disease. Now that Liberalism has been recognized for what it is, its proponents will find it...
One has to look at elections through the lens of how the average voter looks at it, and not how someone who follows policy very closely looks at it. Clinton...
