As
We May Think
by Vannevar Bush
This article was originally published
in the July 1945 issue of The Atlantic Monthly. From the introduction...
"As Director of the Office of Scientific Research and Development, Dr.
Vannevar Bush has coordinated the activities of some six thousand lea ding
American scientists in the application of science to warfare. In this significant
article he holds up an incentive for scientists when the fighting has ceased.
He urges that men of science should then turn to the massive task of making
more accessibl e our bewildering store of knowledge. For many years inventions
have extended man's physical powers rather than the powers of his mind.
Trip hammers that multiply the fists, microscopes that >sharpen the eye,
and engines of destruction and detection are ne w results, but the end
results, of modern science. Now, says Dr. Bush, instruments are at hand
which, if properly developed, will give man access to and command over
the inherited knowledge of the ages. The perfection of these pacific instruments
should be the first objective of our scientists as they emerge from their
war work. Like Emerson's famous address of 1837 on ``The American Scholar,''
this paper by Dr. Bush calls for a new relationship between thinking man
and the sum of our knowledge.
Concilium
Romarici Montis (The Council of Remiremont)
This is a story about nuns who
are just a little bit naughty and settle down with each other to talk about
what sort of men they like. It was written in Latin in the middle of the
twelfth century. What is presented here is a "Bryn Mawr Commentary" on
that work.

THESAURUS
PSEUDO-DIONYSII AREOPAGITAE
After the publication in 1993 in
the series Thesaurus Patrum Graecorum of the Thesaurus Pseudo-Dionysii
Areopagitae, Textus Graecus cum Translationibus Latinis, the Greek text
and the Latin translations from the 9th century to the Renaissance, this
new publication constitutes a real event for scholarship. Here, for the
knowledge and interpretation of an important and difficult work, is now
a new key, and better, a second key, Latin-Greek, alongside the already
available Greek-Latin.
