Not quite proofs, but getting close: I'm putting some near-finishing touches on a chapter on time, creation, & eschatology in Augustine for Nina Emery's upcoming _Routledge Companion to Philosophy of Time_. It's a concise piece, so it's been a fun challenge.

Sean Hannan @seanhannan.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

Speaking as an Augustine scholar who got his PhD just down the road from Leo XIV’s graduate alma mater in Hyde Park, this… feels like a win? (Sad to hear he’s a Cubs fan rather than a Sox fan, though!)

I was happy to open this email from Dr. Michele Pistone (Villanova) & the organizers of the Refugees & Migrants in Our Common Home event. Not 100% sure how I'll be getting to Rome (or where I'll be staying) next October, but I'll aim to figure out how to get there so I can talk about Augustine.

While my American colleagues get to enjoy turkey & football after #SBLAAR24, I was immediately back in the classroom, testing out armour as part of a guest-lecture by my colleague Dr. Stephane Lemieux, who taught us all about medieval warfare. (Is this experiential learning?)
