that was the start of the open court reading program, which combines phonics with movement - - words are both acted out and sounded out - - and emphasizes high - quality children' s literature. mcgraw - hill bought the program in 1996, renaming it sra / open court reading. it was adopted last year by the los angeles public schools and has been lauded for turning around reading scores in desperate schools around the nation .
camilla hegeler had passed away in 1908. paul carus died in 1919. mary hegeler carus continued to manage open court with her daughter elisabeth until her death in 1936. after that, alwin says, the mansion emptied out .

besides publishing numerous translations, essays and books in this area, i also published in the areas of contemporary ethics and aesthetics. beginning in the' 80s, i expanded my interests in continental philosophy to include phenomenology, hermeneutics, psychoanalysis, critical theory and poststructuralism. what resulted was the book culture and critique .
the boss' s daughter was no slouch. when paul met mary she had recently become the first woman graduate of the school of mines in freiburg, where she had studied chemistry, and she was on the board of her father' s zinc works. later she became president of the company. paul and mary married and moved into the mansion in 1888 .
in the meantime, marianne built a children' s publishing empire of her own. now in her early 70s, she still edits and publishes the seven magazines that make up the cricket magazine group: cricket (founded in 1973), cicada, muse, ladybug, babybug, spider, and click. the awards for excellence won by these magazines cover a wall in the cricket office .
the hegelers of bremen were prosperous merchants when edward was born in 1835. they owned a trading company, and edward' s father, hermann, was a diplomatic consul who' d traveled a bit and noticed the opportunities waiting in the untamed wilds of america. one of his sons, he decided, would go there. he picked edward, his youngest, and planned out his education accordingly .
refining zinc into a usable commodity required a smelter, and a smelter required coal. there was low - grade zinc in wisconsin, but the closest coal was in la salle. the partners decided it was easier to ship zinc than coal. they set up business in 1857, and within four years the mathiessen & hegeler zinc works was supplying zinc for armaments used during the civil war. by 1880 mathiessen and hegeler owned the largest zinc company in the united states .
inga' s father had always told her she could do whatever she wanted to; he also let her know that it would make him very happy if she chose to work in one of the family businesses. she liked science, she liked literature, and she thought she might like the life of an academic. she really wasn' t too sure - - plenty of doors were open, and she walked through a few of them .

the scions of the carus family of la salle - peru have a hell of a tradition to contend with: every generation so far has changed the world .
despite the new porch and sandblasted facade, there' s no denying that the hegeler carus mansion in la salle, illinois, looks like the house in the addams family - - only larger. much larger. large enough to make the mansion across the street look like a tract house .
the 57 - room behemoth, completed in 1874, was once capital of an empire. in the 60s the empire moved out, and for almost 30 years the house sat neglected, primordial forest reclaiming its formal gardens, grime accumulating over its four stories. today its sole resident is 99 - year - old uncle alwin, the oldest living carus .
alwin carus' s great - niece, inga carus, lives ten miles away, in ottawa, where not as many of her neighbors know the carus name. that suits her fine. her brother, andre, has characterized himself and his two sisters as
weird .
inga disagrees; she says she' s the normal one .
inga and her siblings are the fourth generation of caruses, but the family legacy really started five generations back, with her great - great - grandparents, edward and camilla hegeler. their daughter mary wed paul carus and gave birth to inga' s grandfather edward. the true fourth generation is her parents, m. blouke and marianne .
in 1995 the hegeler carus mansion was put on the national register of historic places. but though the caruses are still substantial citizens in la salle - peru, they certainly don' t have the $ 10 million it' ll take to renovate the mansion. so blouke carus founded the hegeler carus foundation to raise the money and revive the mansion' s reputation as an important cultural and historical site .
inga sits on the foundation' s board, and she' ll occasionally take brochures advertising mansion tours over to starved rock. but she doesn' t visit the mansion much: she' s too busy working and raising her infant daughter, nicola, whom she adopted from china last year .
all children have to confront the challenge of finding their place in the family mythos, and the current generation of caruses is no different. they have a lot to contend with: a family tradition that expects each generation to change the world .
edward never really knew his mother, who died from a fever in 1838, but his father watched over him like a hawk. he was sent to the academy of schnepfenthal, boarding school in thuringia, the hannover polytechnical school, and then in 1853 to the school of mines in freiburg. there he fell in love with camilla, the daughter of his favorite teacher, julius weisbach, whose work on hydraulics is still influential today .
in 1855 edward' s father, diagnosed with incurable colon cancer, threw himself into the weser river. though edward wrote that he didn' t blame his father, he didn' t attend the funeral. the following year, at the age of 21, he set out for america to start a zinc business with his school chum frederick mathiessen. after scouting locations for almost a year, they wound up in la salle .
they located here for three reasons ,
inga says :
the river and canal, the coal nearby, and the zinc .
hegeler was naturally restless. in 1872 he invented the hegeler furnace, which greatly increased the smelting capacity of his plant (and later others); in 1881 he invented a new type of roasting furnace that generated sulfur dioxide, which in turn led to the manufacture of sulfuric acid. like the hegeler furnace, the roaster became standard in the industry and is noted as hegeler' s most important invention .
as zinc built his fortune, it also built the mansion - - literally and figuratively. the house had zinc - lined cabinets and closets and zinc gutters and rainspouts, which funneled rainwater to a zinc - lined water tank feeding ten bedroom sinks. edward and camilla hegeler (who had married in 1860) had indoor running water before anyone else in town, not to mention the rest of the world .
the rumor regarding the secret tunnel between the two mansions is false, but there were tunnels built between the mansion and the zinc factory, so that steam from the factory would help heat the house. to boil water for the piles of laundry created by his growing family, hegeler ran a line bringing steam to a sink in the laundry room, where an early version of a clothes dryer was added in the early 20th century .
in 1905 hegeler built the mansion across the street for his son julius. in 1906 they had a falling - out, and julius and his brother herman moved to danville, where they started their own zinc business .
my father suspects that the falling - out had something to do with edward c. being a bit of a dictator, but he' s not sure ,
says inga. whatever the cause, they must have come to an understanding, because edward hegeler ended up investing in the danville business .
edward and camilla hegeler had ten children, paul and mary carus six. though as large as a good - sized apartment building, the mansion was full. suzuki and carus worked out together in the gymnasium. musicians were brought in to give recitals on a small balcony over the front stairs. alwin, paul and mary' s son, remembers parties celebrating the night - blooming cereus, which flowers only one night a year .
we had quite a collection ,
alwin recalls - - approximately 100 plants .
we had a day' s notice when they were about to bloom, and friends from town and family were invited .
the last night - blooming cereus party alwin remembers took place in 1910, the same year that edward hegeler died .
even so, the place was a treasure. practically nothing had been changed since the 1880s. the light fixtures, the furniture, the wallpaper: once it went up, it stayed up. hardly anything was ever thrown out; the lightbulbs that first lit the gymnasium in 1892 were still in their sockets in 1995, and amazingly they still worked .
five years after hegeler died, his namesake and grandson, edward carus, founded carus chemical .
in 1915 germany was the major producer of potassium permanganate in the world, and though the u. s. hadn' t entered the war, its supplies from germany had been cut off. edward was in school at the university of wisconsin at madison when one of his professors told him there was a great opportunity waiting in domestic production of the purple crystals, which were an essential element in manufacturing explosives .
so edward went home to la salle, dragged a bathtub out to the horse barn behind the big house, and mixed solutions until he' d taught himself how to make the stuff. the process he used to make it wasn' t efficient, inga says ,
but it worked .
my great - uncle alwin, 99, remembers the day in 1915 when my grandfather came home carrying the first permanganate crystals in his hands, after many months of work trying to figure it out .
edward' s son blouke met his wife, marianne, just after world war ii in freiburg, where they were both students. they met at a dinner gathering, where he asked her if she liked jazz. she didn' t. but marianne felt she could relate to blouke. maybe it was because she had her own strange family history to contend with .
during the war marianne had been drafted into hitler youth, and she worked at the western front, peeling potatoes for the soldiers digging trenches. her father, an eye doctor, was also drafted - - into the nazi party. after the war he spent a year and a half in an english prison camp then returned to his practice and his family .
blouke and marianne were married in 1951. blouke hadn' t planned to go into the family business, but his father asked him to come up with a new manufacturing process for permanganate. so the newlyweds moved back to la salle, and blouke and his brother paul spent ten years working out the kinks in their new process .
at the same time he was modernizing carus chemical, blouke decided to reform american education. the idea was planted after the family went to germany for a year, the year that andre started school. on their return, andre went into the first grade in la salle and was given a stack of books to bring home. when his father saw them he was appalled; andre had a reader from his german school with more words in it than all the books he brought home in la salle combined. this was the problem with american education, blouke thought .
growing up in an atmosphere dominated by children' s education was both stimulating and daunting. all the carus children served as guinea pigs for their parents' theories, and dinner conversations around the family table in peru were all business - - either chemical or literary .
to commemorate their parents' 50th wedding anniversary, inga and andre collaborated on a film about the family, part serious documentary and part spoof. andre wrote it, gathered family archives, picked the music, hired the producer; inga edited the script and coordinated the interviews .
a lot of people want to change the world. some of them may even genuinely be committed to it. but no one has given them the tools. the vienna coffee circle program changes all that; it puts those tools in your hand. here are the simple steps we' ll show you how to follow :
four: figure out a revolutionary new way of making potassium permanganate, and get it all over you .
nine: start the world' s leading children' s literary magazine .
ten: start more and more of the world' s leading children' s literary - - and other - - magazines .
eleven: go on changing the world until you' re blue in the face .
andre' s script, grandits' s delivery, and some humorous visuals had the audience at the university club chuckling. then footage of a nazi rally appeared on the screen, and the audience fell silent. they didn' t know how to react. to some it seemed disrespectful of the children to let the nazis out of the closet .
blouke and marianne carus loved it. they understood that everyone has to overcome their parents .

“kohák’s enormously readable translation of jan patočka’s introduction now opens access for english readers to the czech thinker’s famously original alternative to husserl’s basic thrust. ”
the year 1984 is hurtling back into the distant past, but george orwell’s terrifying novel of a nightmare future seems more relevant than ever .
“much to the surprise of many thoughtful people, it turns out that demons, ghosts, zombies, and vampires actually can teach us quite a bit about the real world... . it’s scary how much fine philosophy is buried inside this highly entertaining volume. ”
“jimi hendrix entered the flame of his genius each time he performed, sacrificing his guitar with lighter fluid after conjuring fiery splendor on his upside - down stringed stratocaster... . these wide - ranging, diverse chapters capture his unique genius. ”
with fear and trembling? do you catch yourself rooting for the soviets? if you’ve ever wondered why, you must read this book. ”
“philip k. dick’s alternate history of a dystopic, defeated, dis - united states squeezed between rival fascist powers strikes a deep chord in these times. krajewski and heter serve up a philosopher’s feast in this wide - ranging collection, from the ethics of resistance to the what - if? of possible worlds. ”
“rabinowitz and arp have assembled sharp and engaged contributors to examine from a rich variety of perspectives one of the most significant cultural events of the decade. a compelling read! ”
does amazingly well at addressing universally important philosophical issues—issues of ethics, truth, privacy, freedom, and so much more—all in a manner that allows readers to connect with and apply in our own lives. ”
“look, these are great essays. i’ve read them. at the end of the day, they won’t put food on your table or anything, but to some of us music - lovers, there’s some solace in the act of reflection... . if you love music and have wondered even a little about why you love it so much, turn up your brain to eleven and listen to this record. ”
eco is a founder of modern semiotics and widely known for his work in aesthetics and philosophy of language. he is also a leading figure in the emergence of postmodern literature. this volume includes eco’s intellectual autobiography and the essay “why philosophy? ” along with twenty - three critical essays by leading philosophers and eco’s replies to his critics .
if you have a proposal for a volume in the series, please send it along. but keep in mind that most pcp volumes are not about entire genres in popular culture. they focus on specific television programs, hit movies, books, video games or trends. proposals for titles such as
video games and philosophy
or
action movies and philosophy ,
are much less appealing than (for example )

“my hypothesis is that the political side that is out of power is the one that hallucinates the most—and needs to—in order to keep their worldview intact. for example, when president obama was in office, i saw all kinds of hallucinations on the right about his intentions to destroy america from the inside because he ‘hates’ it. that was a mass hysteria. if president obama wanted to destroy america, he failed miserably. we’re stronger than ever” (from “the magical thinking opposition, ” scott adams’s blog, august 22, 2017, urltoken) .

of the many venues in popular culture and philosophy, few present such a wide range of perplexities about human nature as the twilight zone. its programs depict the human as idealist, pathetic, loyal, alienated, trusting, self - deluded, trusting, violated, among so many other attributes. the shows can be construed as thought experiments that reflect perennial themes and disputes in philosophy .
the twilight zone was a revolutionary moment in television culture. among various rankings of the top 100 tv shows of all time, the twilight zone is the only one made in the 1950s / 60s that ranks among the top ten. it has influenced a variety of directions in subsequent television production and creativity, including the current popular series black mirror .

“1984” is a deeply philosophical work that engages both with timeless questions about the nature of truth, language, morality, and what it means to be human, as well as specific issues in ethics about surveillance, torture, perpetual war and a host of other topics .
with its devastatingly bleak conclusion, “1984” does not offer any obvious answers to the reader. but through its literary imagination it gives us the tools for conceptualizing institutions, ideologies, and philosophical issues .
the volume is aimed at the general reader who is interested in “1984”. proposed chapters should focus on “1984” and bring out philosophical ideas naturally as a way of illuminating the topic. the length of each chapter should be between 3 - 4 thousand words. the publisher and we the editors agree that the projected book is highly topical, indeed, urgent, and we aim to release the book early in 2018 .
please feel free to circulate this call and forward it to anyone who might be interested in contributing .
