The Pugsters return to Glenn’s turf this week, discussing the introduction of an article by John Mark Reynolds which modifies Lewis’s idea of a “discarded image” in the loss of the medieval worldview, to a “shattered image,” in which elements of the medieval worldview survive, but in fragmented form. The conversation ranges from plague (another of Glenn’s favorite topics), to the nature of the Renaissance, to the development of science, to the idea of progress, and a host of other related topics.

In 1996, Dr. John Mark Reynolds founded the Torrey Honors College, the Great Books program at Biola University. After many years there, he went on to serve as provost at Houston Baptist University, and later to help start The Saint Constantine School, an Orthodox Classical Christian school in Houston, Texas where he currently serves as president. I studied under Dr. Reynolds during my first year at Biola, and I have always thought back fondly on my time in the program. After that initial exposure, I've continued to be fascinated by the assumptions and values that underpin classical education, as well the development of the Western canon. I enjoyed reconnecting with Dr. Reynolds, and getting an opportunity to ask about his own take on, and experience with, this ancient vision of human formation.

Nathan Gilmour moderates a discussion with David Grubbs and Michial Farmer about Internet discourse, the vices that seem to inhere in Internet exchanges, and why a long online discussion is probably at some point going to involve Hitler. Although technology is always on the table, rhetoric is really the name of the game. Among the writers, ideas, and other bad habits we discuss are psychologizing one's opponent, posting manifestos on Facebook, making people into devils, exhibiting classical virtue in online life, and acknowledging just how wise John Mark Reynolds can be when he gets Platonic on your head.
