Welcome to Mr. Wluka! EV has some interesting things to say about ethics in different places. He doesn't always use the term "ethics." Sometimes he talks about...
Dear Mr. Fritz Wagner, dear everybody, Thanks for your message. Unfortunately my english is bad... I can understand and read everything, thanks. But my written...
Once again manuel* The one subject is EV and ethics. The other subject is EV and Notre Dame. The next summer I´ll have the possibilty do stay half an year at...
Quite a number of the members of this group were students of Voegelin at one time or another. Bob Cihak and I were classmates and students of Voegelin at...
Fritz, I couldn't get your link to open. Notre Dame has bough up huge chunks of land just south of the university and is developing it into high-cost housing...
... While this is likely to be true (at what university isn't it true?), I think it's worth pointing out that Notre Dame has done some extraordinary things ...

Christopher Vilmar has written of Notre Dame, "everything there is about money these days." Typical of colleges and universities? About 15 years ago I was...
I, and a few others, seem to have forgotten the technique for responding privately to evforum postings! Sorry for my own lapses. Cordially, Fritz Wagner...
It was "publish or perish" at Notre Dame even 50 years ago. Until Fr. Hesburgh became president in '55 or thereabouts it was still possible to come to Notre...
I'd like to take exception to Mr. Vilmar's congratulatory remarks about hiring 30 to 40 new professors in the Humanities. The last completed fundraising drive...
Fritz, Thanks for your invitation to toss in my 2 cents regarding ND. Contrary to the tone of some of the messages concerning ND having sold its soul as a...
Perhaps the key is undergraduate vs graduate work, as John von Heyking suggests. My impression is that US students arriving at college are immature as...
Fritz's reference got me reading through Heilman's account, and I came across this puzzle: "For instance, "tension toward," a phrase Eric frequently used,...

Well, I would think that makes the metaphor all the more challenging....without (I hope) going to far into dissecting the obvious, let me just say that I...
The Voegelinian formulation is "die existentielle Spannung zum Grund". In english Voegelin speaks of the "tension toward the ground" - a highly problematic...
Thanks to Dr. Gebhardt for the helpful citations. "What is Nature?" is one place where ground and intelligibility are specifically connected by Voegelin, but...
Adding "existential" to the phrase is informative. It suggests that we focus on the experience of being in tension as much as on the object of that which we...
Much appreciation for Prof. Gebhardt's very useful post. I was wondering if he could elaborate upon the following idea -- "[Grund] refers to the ratio fiendi,...
Dear everybody, Thanks for your answers and new posts--- it´s overwhelming!! Because my home office internet doesnt work I´only have the possibility to work...

Concerning Notre Dame: I hope It won t be a cultural shock!! I come from a verry small university (as you know catholic theology department only). We have...
