Because I do not hope to turn again Because I do not hope Because I do not hope to turn ... Teach us to care and not to care Teach us to sit still. Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death Pray for us now and at the hour of our death. - T. S. Eliot, "Ash Wednesday"

I am saddened to learn of Alasdair MacIntyre's passing. I read After Virtue during my first year of grad school, and it had a profound impact on me, as did his subsequent work. For me, he has been a model Catholic philosopher. May he rest in peace. wordonfire.org/articles/remem…

🕯️ We mourn the passing of philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre (1929–2025), whose work — especially "After Virtue" — shaped modern virtue ethics and inspired generations of scholars, including many at the Hamilton School. His legacy lives on. #MacIntyre #AfterVirtue #VirtueEthics
