Not quite proofs, but getting close: I'm putting some near-finishing touches on a chapter on time, creation, & eschatology in Augustine for Nina Emery's upcoming _Routledge Companion to Philosophy of Time_. It's a concise piece, so it's been a fun challenge.

Speaking as an Augustine scholar who got his PhD just down the road from Leo XIV’s graduate alma mater in Hyde Park, this… feels like a win? (Sad to hear he’s a Cubs fan rather than a Sox fan, though!)

Inspired by @w-ezekielgoggin.bsky.social, I spent part of Easter weekend translating a little Augustine. Here’s a snippet from Book 7 of the Confessions.

One of my students made stickers of Corregio's _Mystical Marriage of St. Catherine_ (1527) to accompany their presentation in our Renaissance/Reformation class today. That's commitment!

Got this in the mail earlier this week. Eager to read it!

It was great to get a chance to reconnect with my old fellow maroons Daniel Kim & Mark Lambert to put out this CfP for a special issue of _Religious Studies & Theology_ on religion & medicine. Don't hesitate to let me know if you'd like to contribute! journal.equinoxpub.com/RST/about/su...

I was happy to open this email from Dr. Michele Pistone (Villanova) & the organizers of the Refugees & Migrants in Our Common Home event. Not 100% sure how I'll be getting to Rome (or where I'll be staying) next October, but I'll aim to figure out how to get there so I can talk about Augustine.

Not sure, but I don't think so! It would be great to get him on here, though...

Don't forget that Volume 41 of the American Cusanus Society Newsletter is now available! These screenshots offer you a sneak-peek, but for the full thing you'll need to become an ACS member. Sign up here: americancusanussociety.org/membership
