Covered one of the great passages tonight in our @catherineproject.bsky.social reading group on Moby-Dick. “But as in landlessness alone resides the highest truth, shoreless, indefinite as God—so, better it is to perish in that howling infinite, than be ingloriously dashed upon the lee…”
Whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul—and I find myself pausing before coffin warehouses—and my hypos get the upper hand of me—that's when I know it's time to go back to Moby-Dick. Extremely chuffed to be embarking on an M-D @catherineproject.bsky.social group one week from today...
I already miss my Spring @catherineproject.bsky.social Homer group. Hopefully I'll see some of them again for Fall Plato, but til then...
I am an ape in an enclosure. I require enrichment activities. I could do worse than reading Thucydides. (you should sign up for one of these *free* groups)

I’ve spent the past six months reading Aquinas with @catherineproject.bsky.social folks and it’s been lovely. Fun to have your default state of being be rumination of what some dude named Thomas was up to. Or, put differently: I;m thinking about thos Beens
It's been a difficult week on multiple levels — and having a Thursday with two @catherineproject.bsky.social discussions of Dante and Dostoyevsky with groups of incredibly thoughtful readers has been the absolute highlight of it. Tremendously spirit-lifting. (And completely free.)
Is it a damp, drizzly November in your soul? Tempted to go out in the street knocking men’s hats off? I know just what you need: sun, summer, and the sea! Come read MOBY-DICK with me this summer for the @catherineproject.bsky.social Tuesday nights 8-10pm est! catherineproject.org/general-offe...

If you want to read the poem but feel it may be overwhelming, check out @catherineproject.bsky.social Its a great, completely free (that accepts donations) project that creates reading groups and courses on a variety of topics, including Homer.
Wrapped up Being and Time w/ my @catherineproject.bsky.social group last night. Always so impressed with readers who sign up for Catherine Project groups. Intelligent, engaged people tackled one of the most difficult works of western philosophy for 13 weeks in their off time. Did a great job.
Current reads: Gulliver's Travels (with @catherineproject.bsky.social) and another @rbratten.bsky.social entry 📚
Have you found yourself asking: what is the deal with poiesis? Come read Plato’s TIMAEUS and Heidegger’s THE QUESTION CONCERNING TECHNOLOGY with me this Spring! Or sign up for many other great @catherineproject.bsky.social offerings! catherineproject.org/general-offe...

So this is outside of my training, but I know a lot of classicists on here: what would you suggest for someone post-college looking to teach themselves the language? My instinct is 'Wheelock, blood, sweat and tears' but I assume there is a better answer.
@lemonquest.bsky.social · 12mo agoCould you suggest anything for post-college learners? I never took Latin but would like to have a better grasp of the language
Registrations *just* closed, but @catherineproject.bsky.social offers an introductory Latin (and ancient Greek!) tutorial that uses Lingua Latina and Colloquia Personarum, depending on the section. catherineproject.org/general-offe...
