@JamesWHankins1 Elsewhere, after only 8 years of teaching, I went down to 1 page/week, hoping to have 2-3 out of 40 students reading the first two paragraphs (Philosophy). In English, it was decided that 1 novel and 1 short-story/year is enough.

Thrilled to host in the series *History of Metaphysics* @degruyter_brill yet another absolute gem: Anca Vasiliu's 600p-masterpiece on the metaphysics of light in Aristotle, Plato, Plotinus, discussing also Eriugena, Dante and Ficino. Soon to be published https://t.co/cBM5nShX5E
