A noted literary scholar traverses the Russian canon, exploring how realists, idealists, and revolutionaries debated good and evil, moral responsibility, and freedom. Since the age of Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Chekhov, Russian literature has posed questions about good and evil, moral responsibility, and human freedom with a clarity and intensity found nowhere else. In Wonder Confronts Certainty: Russian Writers on the Timeless Questions and Why Their Answers Matter (Harvard University Press, 2023), Dr. Gary Saul Morson delineates intellectual debates that have coursed through two centuries of Russian writing, as the greatest thinkers of the empire and then the Soviet Union enchanted readers with their idealism, philosophical insight, and revolutionary fervor. Dr. Morson describes the Russian literary tradition as an argument between a radical intelligentsia that uncompromisingly followed ideology down the paths of revolution and violence, and writers who probed ever more deeply into the human condition. The debate concerned what Russians called “the accursed questions”: If there is no God, are good and evil merely human constructs? Should we look for life's essence in ordinary or extreme conditions? Are individual minds best understood in terms of an overarching theory or, as Tolstoy thought, by tracing the “tiny alternations of consciousness”? Exploring apologia for bloodshed, Dr. Morson adapts Mikhail Bakhtin's concept of the non-alibi—the idea that one cannot escape or displace responsibility for one's actions. And, throughout, Dr. Morson isolates a characteristic theme of Russian culture: how the aspiration to relieve profound suffering can lead to either heartfelt empathy or bloodthirsty tyranny. What emerges is a contest between unyielding dogmatism and open-minded dialogue, between heady certainty and a humble sense of wonder at the world's elusive complexity—a thought-provoking journey into inescapable questions. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose doctoral work focused on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In this episode, Eckhart talks about the sense of guilt which has plagued humanity through the centuries. He says it's part of the ego's dysfunction: the feeling that not only is there something wrong with the world, there's also something wrong with me. Eckhart explains certain religious traditions have interpreted this as God's punishment - we believe somehow we are at fault when bad things happen. He says this results in a heavy pain body burdened by resentments, grievances and also the sense of being a victim. Eckhart says these are ego identities based on faulty thinking. He believes what's needed is wisdom so we can free ourselves to find our true identity - some traditions call it our Buddha nature or Christ consciousness. Eckhart says this aspect of us cannot be harmed by what has happened to us; it is not touched by suffering. He believes we must look inside to find this timeless essence that lives within each of us.Want more podcasts from OWN?

Doug and Pesach sit down with a very special guest, Pesach's father, Rabbi Yosef Wolicki. On the morning of October 6th, 1973 - the holiest day on the Jewish calendar, Yom Kippur - the security guard at Rabbi Yosef Wolicki's local synagogue told him that Israel was under attack. He shares memories of how he responded as the rabbi of the community, what it was like traveling to the front lines in Egypt, his experiences visiting hospitals and soldiers, the sense of depression that overtook Israel despite their eventual victory, and what lessons all people of faith must take from the Yom Kippur War as we analyze what happened fifty years later.

Chapter 1 What's Bowling AloneBowling Alone: The Collapse and Revival of American Community is a non-fiction book written by Robert D. Putnam. It was first published in 2000 and has since become a widely influential work in the fields of sociology and political science.The book focuses on the decline of social capital in the United States over the past several decades. Social capital refers to the networks of relationships and trust that exist within a community, enabling cooperation and collective action. Putnam argues that there has been a significant decrease in social capital, as evidenced by the decline in participation in civic organizations, religious groups, and social clubs.The title "Bowling Alone" is a metaphor for this decline in social capital. Putnam highlights the fact that even though the number of people who bowl has increased, the number of people who participate in organized bowling leagues has significantly decreased. This signifies a shift from communal activities to individualistic pursuits, leading to a decrease in social engagement and a breakdown of community bonds.Putnam also examines the consequences of this decline in social capital, including its impact on political participation, health outcomes, crime rates, and economic development. He suggests that the decline in social capital is detrimental to both individuals and society as a whole, and offers various policy recommendations for reviving and rebuilding social capital."Bowling Alone" has been widely discussed and debated, sparking conversations about the importance of social connections and community building. It has also influenced academic research and policy discussions on topics related to social capital, civic engagement, and the changing nature of American society.Chapter 2 Why is Bowling Alone Worth Read"Bowling Alone" by Robert D.

Insight into social capital: Putnam explores the decline of social capital in American society, emphasizing the importance of social connections and how they contribute to overall well-being. He presents evidence of the decline of social trust, civic engagement, and community involvement, and discusses the impact on individual lives and society as a whole. This analysis offers a unique perspective on the challenges faced by modern societies.2. Thorough research: Putnam extensively researched and gathered data on various aspects of American society, including historical trends, surveys, and case studies. The book is filled with statistical evidence, providing a comprehensive understanding of the decline in social capital and its causes. This research approach adds credibility to the arguments presented in the book.3. Societal implications: "Bowling Alone" goes beyond a mere analysis of the decline in social capital and explores its broader implications. Putnam connects the decline to various social and economic issues, including economic inequality, political polarization, and decreased well-being. By illustrating how the decline in social capital affects different aspects of society, the book encourages readers to think critically about societal challenges and potential solutions.4. Thought-provoking ideas: Putnam raises thought-provoking questions about the nature of community, trust, and societal connectedness. He offers insights into why people are becoming more disconnected from one another and suggests potential strategies to address the decline in social capital. These concepts can spark meaningful discussions and inspire readers to reflect on their own communities and roles within them.5.
