What does it take to build the perfect first shelf? This week we tackle the joyful—and surprisingly stressful—task of creating a starter library. We're joined by John Williams, book editor at The Washington Post, to discuss how to choose ten books that someone can use as a starter library, offering comfort, surprise, and a little stretch along the way. We compare approaches, confess our struggles, and share the shelves we'd hand to a friend ready build their personal library.We'd love to hear from you—what books would make it onto your own starter library?We've got some fantastic author-focused episodes lined up for the foreseeable future, and we want to give you plenty of time to dive in if you'd like to read along with us.

What is man, really? Do we have a purpose, or should we just listen to our desires and shape the world the way we want it to be? Are the ends of things real, or just fictitious imaginations based on our desires? Find out as we continue to discuss Allan Bloom's The Closing of the American Mind!Follow us on X! Give us your opinions here!

In a fit of spite, Professor Kozlowski condenses his discussion of landmark British political philosophers Hobbes and Locke - forerunners of the American constitution - into a single joint lecture. We'll compare and contrast the two states of nature proposed by these thinkers, examine their divergent attitudes toward the authority of government, and root their philosophical conclusions in the tumultuous history of the English Civil War.Hooray for English philosophers - no translations necessary for these texts! Here are the Project Gutenberg texts of Hobbes' Leviathan, and Locke's Second Treatise Concerning Government.Additional readings for this lecture include some more 17th-century English classics: Bacon's scientific Utopia, New Atlantis; Milton's epic masterpiece, Paradise Lost; and Swift's satirical classic, Gulliver's Travels. Finally, for my video gamers, I recommend the colonization-based management sim/city builder Anno 1404 (it may not be the most period-appropriate game in the series, but I think it is the best mechanical representation of this era without the industrialization mechanics of Anno 1800).If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

Professor Kozlowski presents a woefully inadequate look at some key ideas in the political philosophy of China and India, specifically:Lao-Tzu's Tao Te ChingThe Analects of ConfuciusMo-TzuThe Laws of ManuAlong the way we'll talk about the differences between Eastern and Western attitudes toward virtue, rule, and government, as well as how these texts take on a very different perspective from those we've seen in Ancient Greece....and then we won't talk about them again until the 20th century or so. Alas - we still need to make room for all that Marx and Hobbes.I will (one day) upload the document I've produced for my students, which excerpts each of the above texts, to my website, so you may be able to find it there.Additional readings include: Mencius, Sun-Tzu's The Art of War, Intrigues of the Warring States, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the Bhagavad-Gita, and Fire Emblem for my gamer fans.If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: ⁠⁠⁠professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

Cos'è il trattato politico? E quali sono gli autori che ne fanno uso? Significato e caratteristiche del trattato politico moderno.

Legal scholar Annabel Brett explores the idea of “moral possibility”—the boundary between what laws demand and what people can realistically or ethically be expected to do. Drawing from early modern thinkers like Aquinas, Suarez, and Hobbes, Brett shows how moral impossibility has long shaped debates about legal obligation, resistance, and political agency. Commentators Melissa Lane and David Dyzenhaus join the discussion, examining how this concept applies to everything from climate action and military conscription to unjust regimes and democratic norms. Together, they highlight how institutions, customs, and time shape the space between legal duty and human capacity—and why recognizing this gap is vital to both justice and legitimacy.

Murad Idris, a political theorist in the Woodrow Wilson Department of Politics at the University of Virginia, explores the concept of peace, the term itself and the way that it has been considered and analyzed in western and Islamic political thought. War for Peace: Genealogies of a Violent Ideal in Western and Islamic Thought (Oxford University Press, 2018) traces the concept of peace, and the way it is often insinuated with other words and concepts, over more than 2000 years of political thought. Idris begins with Plato's Laws as one of the early sources to consider the tension that seems to be constant in terms of the pursuit of violence in order to attain peace. War for Peace provides some important framing in thinking about peace, in large measure because the research indicates how rare it is for peace itself to be solitary, it is almost always lassoed to other words and concepts, and functions either as a binary opposition (e.g.: war and peace) or as part of a dyad combination (e.g.: peace and justice). We are urged to think about peace and the valence that is given to the word and the ideal—since the moral and the political understandings of peace are often entangled and part of what Idris is doing in his careful and thoughtful research is to tease out the political concept, apart from the often religious and moral ideal. This rich and complex analysis integrates a broad group of theorists—Plato, al-Farabi, Aquinas, Erasmus, Gentili, Grotius, Ibn Khaldun, Hobbes, Kant, and Sayyid Qutb)—all of whom were examining the role of peace within politics and political thought. And Idris structures these thinkers into chronological and theoretical groupings, to explore the ways in which they were responding to each other, across time, but also to understand how different thinkers were connecting peace to other concepts. War for Peace: Genealogies of a Violent Ideal in Western and Islamic Thought may leave the reader anxious but also enlightened in considering this idea and its perplexing place within the history of political thought.

In this recap episode of the Wolff Peace series, host Avis Kalfsbeek explores Part Two of Robert Paul Wolff's Political Man and Social Man—The Individual and Society: Classical Images of Man. Through thinkers like Aristotle, Hobbes, Bentham, and Marx, we explore philosophical portraits of human nature that undergird political theory. Paired with peace warriors like Malala Yousafzai, Satish Kumar, Leymah Gbowee, and Arundhati Roy, we reflect on how our assumptions about “what people are like” shape everything from law to revolution.

Dijital çağda savaşın ve egemenliğin derinliklerine iniyoruz. Carl Schmitt'in Partisan Teorisi'ni modern dijital alana uyarlayarak, Bitcoin ve kripto varlıkların neden açık birer askeri varlık ve asimetrik savunma teknolojisi olarak görülebileceğini inceliyoruz. Mahremiyetin devletler tarafından sistematik olarak yok edildiği, panoptikonun her yanı sardığı bir dünyada, "kripto-partisan" adında yeni bir tarihi figürün doğuşuna tanıklık ediyoruz.Bu devrimci figür, kimliğini ustaca gizleyerek ve kriptografi tekniklerini kullanarak devlete karşı şiddet içermeyen bir ekonomik savaş başlatıyor. Temel amaç, devletin fiat para ve seigniorage (para basma) yoluyla beslenen "Behemoth" yapısını ekonomik olarak aç bırakmaktır. Bitcoin'in ortaya koyduğu yeni ekonomik topografya, "cuius regio, eius economia" (Kimin hükümranlığıysa, onun ekonomisi) ilkesini "cuius economia, eius regio" (Kimin ekonomisiyse, onun hükümranlığı) şekline dönüştürüyor.Bu yeni savaşın temelinde, "Veritas, non auctoritas facit legem" (Gerçek, otoriteyi değil, meşruiyeti yaratır) prensibi yatıyor. Bu, Hobbes'un egemen güç tanımının doğrudan bir tersine çevrilmesidir ve yalanlarla yönetilen bir dünyada silahlı bir hakikat biçimi sunar. Kriptografi, bireyin kimliğini koruyarak devleti "dost" ya da "düşman" olarak sınıflandırma yeteneğinden mahrum bırakır ve total mahremiyet sağlar.Hükümetlerin, bireylerin mahremiyetini ve haklarını sürekli ihlal ederek "mutlak düşman" haline geldiği bu çağda, kripto-partisan, bu kâbus gibi gözetim rejimine karşı duran son devrimci figür olarak öne çıkıyor. Satoshi Nakamoto'nun başlattığı bu hareket, fiziksel sınırların ötesinde yeni bir sosyal düzenin kurulmasına zemin hazırlıyor. Bitcoin'in içerdiği radikal koruma ve ekonomik özgürlük araçlarıyla, her insanın bu güce sahip olma hakkı vurgulanmaktadır. Kripto çağının bu nihai safhasında, şifreli ağın her şeyi yutmaya başladığı bir dönemin eşiğindeyiz.Kaynak

So who killed privacy? It's the central question of Tiffany Jenkins' provocative new history of private life, Strangers and Intimates. The answer, according to Jenkins, is that we are all complicit—having gradually and often accidentally contributed to privacy's demise from the 16th century onwards. Luther started it by challenging Papal religious authority and the public sacraments, thereby creating the necessity of private conscience. Then came Enlightenment philosophers like Locke and Hobbes who carved out bounded private political and economic spheres establishing the foundations for modern capitalism and democracy. Counter-enlightenment romantics like Rousseau reacted against this by fetishizing individual innocence and authenticity, while the Victorians elevated the domestic realm as sacred. Last but not least, there's Mark Zuckerberg's socially networked age, in which we voluntarily broadcast our private lives to a worldwide audience. But why, I ask Jenkins, should we care about the death of private life in our current hyper-individualistic age? Can it be saved by more or less obsession with the self? Or might it require us to return to the world before Martin Luther, a place Thomas More half satiricizes Utopia, where “private life” was a dangerously foreign idea. 1. Privacy is a Historical Accident, Not a Natural Human Condition"There was a sense in which you shouldn't do anything privately that they wouldn't do publicly... This wasn't a kind of property-based private life." Jenkins argues that before the 17th century, the very concept of leading a separate private life didn't exist—privacy as we understand it is a relatively recent invention.2. Martin Luther Accidentally Created Modern Privacy Through Religious Rebellion"Luther inadvertently... authorized the self as against, in his case, the Catholic Church... if you follow the debates over the kind of beginnings of a private sphere and its expansion, whether you're reading Locke or Hobbes, there's a discussion about... the limits of authority." Luther's challenge to religious authority unintentionally created the need for private conscience, sparking centuries of development toward individual privacy.3. The Digital Age Represents a Return to Pre-Privacy Transparency"I think we do live in a period where there is little distinction between public and private, where the idea that you might keep something to yourself is seen as strange, as inauthentic." Jenkins suggests our current era of social media oversharing resembles pre-modern times more than the Victorian peak of privacy.4. Modern Loneliness Stems From Social Fragmentation, Not Individual Psychology"I sometimes wonder if we're pathologizing, actually, what is a social problem, which is a society where people are fragmented, not quite sure how to go beyond themselves... I would see that as a social problem." Rather than treating loneliness as a personal issue, Jenkins argues it reflects the breakdown of intermediate institutions between family and state.5. Technology Doesn't Determine Our Privacy—We Do"Can't blame the tech, tech isn't the problem... It comes down really to what sort of society we want to live in and how we want to be treated. That's not a technical thing. That has not to do with technology. That's to do humans." Jenkins rejects technological determinism, arguing that privacy's fate depends on human choices about social organization, not inevitable technological forces.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

English philosopher Thomas Hobbes believed that life would be "nasty, brutish and short" without a strong government. IDEAS explores how a new take on Hobbes that includes his writing on the topic of anxiety offers a surprising perspective on the recent American election and democracy. *This episode originally aired on Jan. 13, 2025.

What happens when we lose touch with play, friendship, and authentic human connection? This episode dives into the surprising links between playfulness, friendliness, and showmanship – revealing how these seemingly "purposeless" activities might be the very foundation of what makes us human.I explore Belyaev's groundbreaking fox experiment, which demonstrated something remarkable: when researchers bred foxes solely for friendliness, playfulness emerged spontaneously without being selected for. This suggests these traits may be facets of the same evolutionary adaptation – our innate drive to connect meaningfully with others.The conversation takes a sobering turn as we examine the concept of "play deficit" – the documented decline in children's free play since the 1960s that correlates disturbingly with skyrocketing rates of anxiety, depression, and even suicide among young people. Could our efficiency-obsessed culture be robbing children of something essential to their development?This leads us to consider a parallel concept: "show deficiency." Using the COVID pandemic as a natural experiment, we look at what happened when humans couldn't gather for performances, cultural events, and community celebrations. The resulting 25% increase in mental health struggles suggests these seemingly frivolous activities might be as necessary as food and shelter.Throughout the episode, I challenge the capitalist notion that values only productivity and efficiency. What if Hobbes was wrong about human nature? What if we're not naturally selfish and cruel, but instead born to learn, bond, and play? Our cultural expressions – from singing around campfires to magic shows – might not be diversions from "real life" but expressions of our deepest nature.Join me as we reimagine what truly matters and discover how embracing the apparently purposeless might be the key to living fully human lives.Support the show...Now you can get t-shirts and hoodies with our wonderful logo.

"Kripto-Egemenlik ve Gerçekliğin Gücü" başlıklı podcast'imize hoş geldiniz! Bu bölümde, dijital dünyanın derinliklerine inerek kriptoyu sadece bir teknoloji olarak değil, aynı zamanda yeni bir politik teoloji olarak ele alıyoruz. Tıpkı devletçilik gibi, kripto da sistemlerinin değerini anlamlandırmak için inanca ve güvene dayanır.Geleneksel hukuk sistemlerinde yasalar, insan otoritesi ve şiddetle uygulanırken, kripto sistemlerinde kurallar sadece kod tarafından dayatılır; burada sübjektif bir karakter ya da şiddet uygulama ihtiyacı yoktur. İnsanların sözlerini tutamadığı ve hukukun istisnalarla dolu olduğu düşünüldüğünde, makinelerin yalan söyleyememesi radikal bir fark yaratır. Makine yeminleri, yani kodlar, anlamsal yükümlülüklerini yerine getirmek zorundadır; çünkü kod yorumlanmaz, derlenir, istisnalara yer yoktur. Bu, herhangi bir yorum olasılığı olmayan, ikili bir "doğruluk-olarak-varlık" metodolojisiyle işleyen yeni bir "hukuk" stratejisi yaratır.Bitcoin gibi sistemlerin varlığı, özel anahtarın kriptografik sistemlerdeki kutsal gücünden kaynaklanır; bu, matematiğin mutlak egemenliği altında, gizliliği güvence altına alır. Hiçbir insan veya makine, kriptografiyi hareket ettiren matematiği sınırlarının ötesine taşıyacak güce sahip değildir. Bu, "kripto-egemenlik" adını verdiğimiz yeni bir ekonomik, sosyal ve politik güç biçimini doğurur. Kripto, dijital alanda devletin şiddetli fiziksel gücünü işlevsiz hale getirerek, devletlerin kontrolü dışında tamamen yeni bir değer yaratır.Bu sistem, şiddet uygulama ihtiyacını ortadan kaldırarak ve katılımcıları anonimleştirerek gerçek bir "ortak zenginlik" biçimi oluşturur; burada tüm aktörler eşittir. Kripto, "otorite değil, hakikat yasayı yapar" şeklindeki Hobbesçu ilkeyi "hakikat, otorite değil, yasayı yapar" şeklinde tersine çevirerek, kadim bir politik teolojiyi yeniden canlandırır. Bu, varlıklarımızı devletin yasalarından ve şiddetinden koruyan, matematiğin mutlak gücüyle sürekli kendini kanıtlayan sarsılmaz bir değer sunar.Bu eşsiz bölümde, kripto-anarşist Erik'in bakış açısıyla, bitcoin ve genel olarak kriptonun politik, ekonomik ve sosyal teorilerle kesişim noktalarını keşfedeceğiz. Dinlemeye hazır olun!Kaynak

Thomas Hobbes es el filósofo político favorito de Christian Sobrino y entre febrero y mayo del 2025, Sobrino ofreció un seminario gratuito sobre el Leviatán (la obra maestra de Hobbes) titulado Soberanía sobre los Orgullosos a través del Centro para el Estudio de la Democracia del Dr. Manuel S. Almeida. Las once sesiones se publicarán en audio en el feed de La Trinchera los lunes.

Bu bölümde, dijital çağın en dönüştürücü kavramlarından biri olan **"Kriptoegemenlik"**i keşfediyoruz. Satoshi Nakamoto'nun merkezi ağlara karşı P2P ağlarının gücüne dair sözlerinden ilham alan bu eşsiz güç, Michel Foucault'nun egemenlik takıntısından uzaklaşma çağrısıyla da yankılanır. Kriptoegemenlik, siberpunk'ların kriptografi araçlarını askeri sırlardan kişisel özgürlük ve ekonomik serbestlik araçlarına dönüştürerek yarattığı, geleneksel siyasi güç, yasa ve şiddet sistemlerini reddeden bir yaklaşımdır.John Perry Barlow'un "Siberuzayın Bağımsızlık Bildirgesi"nde belirtildiği gibi, Kriptoegemenlik, hükümetlerin yetki alanının dışında, bireylerin ekonomik, sosyal ve siyasi haklarını ihlal edilemez bir dijital ortak zenginliğe aktarma yeteneğidir. Bu yeni paradigmada, "kodun kendisi egemendir, istisnası yoktur". Giorgio Agamben'in "tamamen farklı stratejiler" arayışına işaret ettiği gibi, Kriptoegemenlik, Hobbes'un "otorite yasayı yapar" düsturunu tersine çevirerek, "hakikatin meşruiyet sağladığı" yeni bir sosyal sözleşme kurar. Fiziksel gücü sözleşmesel uygulamadan çıkararak, blockchain sistemleri aracılığıyla benzersiz bir egemenlik biçimi yaratılır.Bu, yalnızca bir teknolojik gelişme değil, aynı zamanda siyasi bir praksistir. Walter Benjamin'in "içinde yaşadığımız acil durumun kural olduğunu" belirten düşüncelerine dayanarak, Kriptoegemenlik, küresel faşizm ve yolsuzlukla mücadelede ekonomik gücü temel bir araç olarak görür. Fiat para sistemine ve gözetim mekanizmalarına katılmayı reddederek, bireylerin kendi varlıkları ve gizlilikleri üzerindeki kontrolü geri alması, "gerçek bir olağanüstü hal" yaratır. Bu, devletin ve bankacılık müttefiklerinin "can damarlarını" kesen devrimci bir eylemdir.Kriptoegemenliğin hedefi, şiddet döngülerini tekrarlayan yeni bir egemenlik biçimi yaratmak değil, geleneksel güç yapılarını temelden dışarıda bırakarak günümüze daha uygun, daha iyi bir sistem inşa etmektir. Bu, bireyin seçimiyle egemen kararın alındığı, kriptografik kanıtlarla kendini güvence altına alan bir sistemdir. Gelin, kodun gücüyle şekillenen bu yeni dijital özgürlük çağını ve insanoğlunun yasayla çocukların eski oyuncaklarla oynaması gibi oynayacağı, onları kanonik kullanımlarından sonsuza dek özgürleştireceği geleceği keşfedelim.Kaynak

After witnessing the execution of serial killer Edgar Reese (Elias Koteas), whom he arrested, police detective John Hobbes (Denzel Washington), and his partner, Jonesy (John Goodman), are soon investigating another murderer whose mode of operation is eerily similar to Reese's. In the course of the investigation, Hobbes meets theology professor Gretta Milano (Embeth Davidtz), who introduces him to the world of the occult and the possibility that an evil spirit is behind the killings.

How to sustain an international system of cooperation in the midst of geopolitical struggle? Can the international economic and legal system survive today's fractured geopolitics? Democracies are facing a drawn-out contest with authoritarian states that is entangling much of public policy with global security issues. In Global Discord: Values and Power in a Fractured World Order (Princeton University Press, 2024), Paul Tucker lays out principles for a sustainable system of international cooperation, showing how democracies can deal with China and other illiberal states without sacrificing their deepest political values. Drawing on three decades as a central banker and regulator, Tucker applies these principles to the international monetary order, including the role of the U.S. dollar, trade and investment regimes, and the financial system. Combining history, economics, and political and legal philosophy, Tucker offers a new account of international relations. Rejecting intellectual traditions that go back to Hobbes, Kant, and Grotius, and deploying instead ideas from David Hume, Bernard Williams, and modern mechanism-design economists, Tucker describes a new kind of political realism that emphasizes power and interests without sidelining morality. Incentives must be aligned with values if institutions are to endure. The connecting tissue for a system of international cooperation, he writes, should be legitimacy, creating a world of concentric circles in which we cooperate more with those with whom we share the most and whom we fear the least. Paul Tucker is a fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School and the author of Unelected Power (Princeton). He is a former central banker and regulator at the Bank of England, and a former director at Basel's Bank for International Settlements, where he chaired some of the groups designing reforms of the international financial system after the Global Financial Crisis.

Neste episódio, oferecemos uma análise crítica e profundamente teológica das influências ideológicas que ameaçam a integridade da liderança e da estrutura da Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia. Exploramos como o gnosticismo moderno – manifestado em teologias políticas seculares como o iluminismo, o romantismo, o positivismo e o idealismo transcendental – pode se infiltrar na cultura organizacional da IASD, convertendo a estrutura em um fim em si mesma, ofuscando a missão escatológica e espiritual da Igreja.

If you were ever an enthusiastic reader of “Calvin and Hobbes,” “Peanuts,” “Blondie,” “Doonesbury,” or the “Boondocks,” you have a treat coming your way: “Mafalda,” a six-year-old comic book character created by the artist Quino in Argentina, is now available in English in a dazzling translation by Frank Wynne. Mafalda is a precocious kid—Frank describes her as “six going on sixty”—who observes the world around her with fresh eyes, and then asks the kind of queer questions that the grown-ups in her life can't or won't answer. Mafalda's concerns focus on humanity and world peace, and her innocence shines a bright light on the conflict between what adults claim to value, and how they actually live. Think of her as a socialist “Nancy.” We're joined from London by Frank Wynne, a former Chair of the Judging Panel of the International Booker Prize and the award-winning author, translator, and editor of two major anthologies, Found in Translation: 100 of the finest stories every translated, and QUEER: LGBTQ Writing from Ancient Times to Yesterday.

On The Sources of Normativity (1996), lectures 1 and 2. How are facts related to obligations? We don't want to merely explain our moral impulses, but justify them. Korsgaard walks us through the views of Hobbes, Hume, Bernard Williams and others to arrive at her own breed of Kantianism, which we'll lay out in ep. 371. Get more at partiallyexaminedlife.com.

Who or what rules the world today? And by what right?In this episode, your favorite philosophers-on-tap—Talia Bettcher, Rick Lee, and Leigh M. Johnson—pull back the curtain on one of political theory's most enduring (and most elusive) concepts: sovereignty. From dusty monarchs and divine right to corporations, constitutions, and contested rights, they explore how sovereignty continues to shape the world we live in—often in ways we no longer recognize. What is sovereign power? Can it be shared? Is the individual sovereign over themselves—or is that just a liberal fantasy? And in an age of global crises—climate catastrophe, AI proliferation, corporate overreach—does the nation-state still make sense at all?Drawing on thinkers like Jean Bodin, Hobbes, Rousseau, Agamben, and Judith Butler, this lively and rigorous conversation confronts the paradoxes at the heart of sovereignty, including the terrifying possibility that we've inherited concepts that no longer serve us… if they ever did.Grab a drink and settle in for a provocative, globe-spanning conversation on what it means to rule, obey, resist—and live together.Full episode notes available at this link:https://hotelbarpodcast.com/podcast/sovereignty-------------------If you enjoy Hotel Bar Sessions podcast, please be sure to subscribe and submit a rating/review!

Como a burocracia pode sufocar a missão? Neste episódio provocador da série A Ordem, exploramos três fundamentos históricos do Estado moderno — centralização, harmonização e cumulação — e extraímos lições poderosas para a liderança e estrutura da Igreja Adventista do Sétimo Dia em tempos de hipertrofia institucional. Você já se perguntou: Quando a ordem institucional se torna um obstáculo espiritual? Como discernir entre controle e serviço? O que o Leviatã de Hobbes tem a ver com departamentos que decidem sozinhos? Com linguagem acessível, rigor teológico e aplicação prática, este episódio é um chamado urgente aos pastores, administradores e líderes para reencontrarem a missão no meio da máquina. Cristo continua sendo a cabeça. O Espírito ainda distribui dons. A missão precisa ser o filtro de cada decisão. ▶️ Assista, reflita e compartilhe com sua liderança. A ordem só é verdadeira se for movida pela missão

David Zahl is the director of Mockingbird Ministries and editor-in-chief of the Mocking Bird website. Born in New York City and brought up elsewhere, David graduated from Georgetown University in 2001, and then worked for several years as a youth minister in New England. In 2007 he founded Mockingbird in NYC. We talk about his latest book The Big Relief:the urgency of grace for a worn-out world. Today David and his wife Cate reside in Charlottesville, VA with their three boys, where David also serves on the staff of Christ Episcopal Church. He is also the author of A Mess of Help: From the Crucified Soul of Rock N' Roll and co-author of Law and Gospel: A Theology for Sinners (and Saints). His book, Seculosity: How Career, Parenting, Technlogy, Food, Politics, and Romance Became Our New Religion and What To Do About It, appeared in 2019 from Fortress Press. Even after all these years, he's still mourning the end of Calvin and Hobbes (and hoping that Morrissey and Marr will bury the hatchet). His favorite theologian is probably a cross between Johnny Cash, Flannery O'Connor and his brother Simeon.

A whole episode of Political Theory 101 devoted to Thomas Hobbes' Behemoth. We discuss Hobbes' historical narrative and his theory of education, both of which receive little attention in Leviathan.

Tony Lewis makes drawings using a range of materials and methods that are centered around mark-making and language. Tony talks about athletics, psychology, and art history as frameworks for his world view, drawing as a type of behavior, Calvin & Hobbes comics as a muse, how drawing exists outside of the “art world”, expanding his practice into site-specific installations, not being able to hide or cheat in drawing, cocktail bars as portraits of a place, drawing as problem solving. and kindness and self-awareness as 50% of a career.View Tony's work HERESupport Deep Color HERE
