This is a simple, joyful tribute to perennial and personalist philosophy and common sense; an attempt to strike a balance between the modern and classical worlds, in plain English, scholar-speak free.  The goal is to produce brief synopses of various philosophical questions, themes and terms every first and third Sunday of the month.  The author, Michael Sangervasi, lives near San Francisco and lectures on political science for a local university, specializing in social and political theory.  Contact him at:    intellectualcharity@gmail.com
