\u201cThe principle of the studium generale<\/em> is that civilization has been a continual gift of the creator spirit; it consists of inventions, discoveries, insights, art works, highly theorized institutions, and methods of workmanship. All of this has vastly accumulated over the ages and become very unwieldy, yet, in the spirit, it is always appropriable. As Socrates would have said, it\u2019s meaning can be recalled. The advantage of recalling it is that we are then not enslaved to it, we are citizens, and we again have it available as our own. Consider. It is by losing himself in the objective, in inquiry, creation, and craft, that a man becomes something.<\/span>\u201d (pp. 174-175)<\/p>\n

\u201cWe live increasingly, then, in a system in which little direct attention is paid to the object, the function, the program, the task, the need; but immense attention to the role, the procedure, prestige, and profit.<\/span> We don\u2019t get the shelter and education because not enough mind is paid to those things. Naturally the system is inefficient; the overhead is high; the task is rarely done with love, style, and excitement, for such beauties emerge only from absorption in real objects; sometimes the task is not done at all; and those who could do it best become either cynical or resigned.\u201d (p. xiii)<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-search” add_icon=”true” title=”Source ISBN” tab_id=”1453315828572-dac97b48-68e05381-89e5486b-50b8″][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]\n
