  Diogenes - The Cynic Who Lived...

  Diogenes of Sinope, one of the most famous figures in ancient philosophy, is a man whose life and ideas have left an indelible mark on the world. Known for his eccentric behavior and unwavering commitment to a life of simplicity, Diogenes was one of the founders of the philosophical school of Cynicism. His life was a statement, rejecting the norms and conventions of society in pursuit of a personal freedom that few could fully understand, much less emulate. To this day, his legacy remains a profound reminder of the power of nonconformity and the pursuit of virtue above material wealth. 
  Born in Sinope (modern-day Sinop, Turkey), Diogenes was a figure who viewed the world with a unique lens. He rejected the luxuries and complexities of Athenian society, seeking instead a life of self-sufficiency, minimalism, and authenticity. His choice to live in a barrel, or more accurately, a large ceramic jar, in Athens became a symbol of his commitment to simplicity and his disdain for materialism. Diogenes wasn’t just a philosopher; he was a living critique of the social structures around him. His constant questioning of authority, wealth, and societal expectations created a lasting legacy that went beyond words and doctrines. 
  The Cynic philosophy that Diogenes embodied was radical for its time. It was a philosophy that urged individuals to cast off the superficial trappings of society—wealth, fame, and social standing—and instead focus on living virtuously and naturally. Diogenes practiced what he preached, often engaging in acts that were both shocking and humorous, yet deeply philosophical. His public antics, such as walking around Athens in broad daylight with a lantern claiming to be "looking for an honest man," were not mere provocations but expressions of a profound philosophical stance against the moral decay he saw in society.

  Consuming Religion

  What are you drawn to like, to watch, or even to binge? What are you free to consume, and what do you become through consumption? These questions of desire and value, Kathryn Lofton argues, are questions for the study of religion. In eleven essays exploring soap and office cubicles, Britney Spears and the Kardashians, corporate culture and Goldman Sachs, Lofton shows the conceptual levers of religion in thinking about social modes of encounter, use, and longing. Wherever we see people articulate their dreams of and for the world, wherever we see those dreams organized into protocols, images, manuals, and contracts, we glimpse what the word “religion” allows us to describe and understand.
   
  With great style and analytical acumen, Lofton offers the ultimate guide to religion and consumption in our capitalizing times.

  In The Great Upheaval, Arthur Levine and Scott Van Pelt examine higher and postsecondary education to see how it has changed to become what it is today—and how it might be refitted for an uncertain future. 
   
   
   
  Taking a unique historical, cross-industry perspective, Levine and Van Pelt perform a 360-degree survey of American higher education. Combining historical, trend, and comparative analysis of other business sectors, they ask 
   
   
   
  ● how much will colleges and universities change, what will change, and how will these changes occur? 
   
   
   
  ● will institutions of higher learning be able to adapt to the challenges they face, or will they be disrupted by them? 
   
   
   
  ● will the industrial model of higher education be repaired or replaced? 
   
   
   
  ● why is higher education more important than ever? 
   
   
   
  The book is neither an attempt to advocate for a particular future direction nor a warning about that future. Rather, it looks objectively at the contexts in which higher education has operated—and will continue to operate. It also seeks to identify likely developments that will aid those involved in steering higher education forward, as well as the many millions of Americans who have a stake in its future.
