Dance is an 1100-line dialogic drama rambic pentameter free verse between one Nisus, a philosophical seeker, and Amanda, a Beatrice-like embodiment of divine wisdom. The author uses the drama to argue three theses: The inherent identity of thought and reality and the validity of speculative idealism as an approach to knowledge of the world; the necessity for positing an Absolute Spirit as the ultimate standard of truth; and the concrete actuality of this absolute. In thirty long footnotes at the end (...) of the poem Beach indicates how the ideas pursued in the poem can be traced through Hegel’s philosophy of absolute idealism. (shrink)
This article investigates aspects of the law of fixtures: items of personal property which have been attached to land in such a way that they have become part of it. The question of whether a chattel has become a fixture can be relevant in a number of contexts, including disputes between vendors and purchasers of land, between heirs and executors of land-owners, and between mortgagors and mortgagees of land. The article looks at the origins (both in Roman and in English (...) law) of the classic tests formulated in the 19th century case of Holland v Hodgson—the ‘degree of annexation’ and the ‘object of annexation’—and traces the development of these in English law from the early 16th century to the end of the 19th century. The writer explores the contribution made to the law by early textbook writers, argues that the case-law does not show the smooth progression that has been claimed for it, and suggests how some of the confusion in the modern law of fixtures has arisen.

Despite the increase in marine science curriculum in secondary schools, marine science is not generally required curricula and has been largely deemphasized or ignored in relation to earth science, biology, chemistry, and physics. I call for the integration and implementation of marine science more fully in secondary science education through authentic inquiry practices that foster the development of an erotic relationship with the ocean. Such a relationship can provide an opportunity to develop ocean literacy if that means people who engage (...) can actively participate in making more informed choices and advocate for affected parties and the ocean. I show how Simone de Beauvoir's erotic ethic influences the philosophy of the eroticism of the ocean, which is integral in the investigation and promotion of erotic generosities in science education, and using this theory to develop some educational implications for marine science within science education. Ultimately, I argue that the development and nurturing of an erotic ethic in the science education classroom is a valuable way to promote moral and ethical thinking such that students can afford nature, and more specifically in this article, the ocean, equivalent moral considerations in our community and science education.

While the Enlightenment brought about an unprecedented growth in freedom, it also gave rise to a set of dichotomies that Hegel's philosophy helps to overcome. In this book, Timothy C. Luther examines Hegel's contribution to polical philosophy and his attempt to resolve tensions in political philosophy and democracy_particularly, his reconciliation of individual liberty and community. Hegel's dialectic preserves what he sees as valuable in liberalism while reformulating it in a way that is more sensitive to community and historical context.
