Mount Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. Not a bad spot to work on manuscripts of Nicolas of Cusa’s sermons (Vat. last. 1244 & 1245).

R. I. P. Helen De Cruz. You were really someone special. A sane voice in an insane world, a rose rising through a cement block ... a glimpse of sunlight in a stormy day. The world has lost a beautiful soul.

If you're looking to see and be seen this fall, why not do so while talking about (mystical) seeing with a warm and collegial group of scholars? Registration is open, and I will personally be there to awkwardly chat you up!

HT Sean Hannan for this gorgeous painting by Antonello da Messina, "Saint Jerome in His Study." (Bernhard Ridderbos has argued that it is actually a portrait of Nicholas of Cusa in the style of Jerome—intriguing!) Everyone know that a good study includes a cat, lion, & 2 birds

A fascinating new translation is coming out that should shed light upon the study of incorporeal realities not only within the Neoplatonic tradition, but also in conversation with Stoics & ancient materialists... edinburghuniversitypress.com/book-the-theor…
