The The Priority of Mind

The The Priority of Mind

Keith Ward

JAMES CLARKE CO LTD
2023
nidottu
Is the mind just a by-product of the brain? Or is mind the fundamental reality, which creates matter? In The Priority of Mind, Keith Ward mounts a definitive defence of mind as prior to matter. In an accessible style, he unpacks the sources and abilities of the mind, situates it in the wider world, or cosmos, and proposes a relation between mind and virtue, and the nature of mind after death. Along the way, he explores the different philosophical approaches to the mind-matter question taken by thinkers over time, settling on idealism as the teaching of most classical philosophers, and as most consistent with modern science. Lay readers and scholars alike will relish Ward's clear, methodical exposition, and his counterarguments against the materialist narrative that dominates much of popular philosophical thinking today.

Morley Calvert’s Suite from the Monteregian Hills is cherished by brass players worldwide and performed hundreds of times annually, making Calvert perhaps the most performed Canadian composer outside the country. Yet little is known about Calvert beyond that piece.And Harmony Abound is a thoughtful and in-depth study of a remarkably accomplished composer, conductor, and educator. Calvert made his living teaching music, but he was no ordinary high school music teacher. He was deeply committed to composing and completed some ninety works for brass ensembles, concert bands, choirs, and orchestras, while engaged in music making in the communities in which he lived. Keith Kinder traces Calvert’s life story from his birth in Brantford, Ontario, in 1928 through his youth and career in Montreal, his musical involvement with the Salvation Army, his success with the famous Central Collegiate band of Barrie, Ontario, his retirement years, and his unexpected passing in Hamilton, Ontario, in 1991. Uncovering Calvert’s oeuvre by analyzing representative arrangements, Kinder also documents the complete catalogue of Calvert’s works, bringing to light many unpublished compositions that would otherwise be lost to performers.And Harmony Abound is a compelling picture of Morley Calvert’s contribution to musical composition, education, and the cultural fabric, preserving a vital strand of the Canadian musical tapestry.

Enthusiasms and Loyalties

Enthusiasms and Loyalties

The Enlightenment Atlantic was awash in deep feelings. People expressed the ardour of patriots, the homesickness of migrants, the fear of slave revolts, the ecstasy of revivals, the anger of mobs, the grief of wartime, the disorientation of refugees, and the joys of victory. Yet passions and affections were not merely private responses to the events of the period – emotions were also central to the era’s most consequential public events, and even defined them. In Enthusiasms and Loyalties Keith Grant shows that British North Americans participated in a transatlantic swirl of debates over emotions as they attempted to cultivate and make sense of their own feelings in turbulent times. Examining the emotional communities that overlapped in Cornwallis Township, Nova Scotia, between 1770 and 1850, Grant explores the diversity of public feelings, from disaffected loyalists to passionate patriots and ecstatic revivalists. He shows how certain emotions – especially enthusiasm and loyalty – could be embraced or weaponized by political and religious factions, and how their use and meaning changed over time. Feelings could be the glue that made loyalties stick, or a solvent that weakened community bonds. Taking a history of emotions approach, Enthusiasms and Loyalties aims to recover and understand the wide range of political and religious emotions that were possible – feelable – in the Enlightenment Atlantic.

Detective J. P. Dalpe, later promoted to Sergeant Detective, is assigned in the early 1920s to a special detective squad of the Quebec Provincial Police to fight crime in Hull, Quebec. The crime was so rampant in the 1920s and 30s that the New York Times called Hull "Little Chicago." Dalpe's first major homicide investigation is the death of a man known in the St. Pierre de Wakefield area as the Hermit. The mutilated body is discovered in the dirt cellar of his small isolated cabin. Whilst this investigation is being pursued, Dalpe is sent south of Montreal to solve the murder of a man whose body is found at a town's nuisance grounds. He tracks down the murderer in Vermont and brings him back to Quebec to face justice. Dalpe is later called upon to investigate the suspicious poisoning of a young woman in the village of Maniwaki. He suspects the sister has a hand in the death. This investigation is followed by the shooting of a man by his nephew in the same region of Quebec. With the end of the Roaring Twenties and the arrival of the Great Depression in the 30s, Dalpe is called upon to solve one of the most heinous crimes to have ever occurred in Hull. An unemployed lumberjack is brutally beaten to death in the bush off Aylmer Road on the outskirts of Hull. Dalpe needs to coordinate the investigation with the Hull City Police Force and the Ottawa Police Force to track down suspects. He learns that organized crime is behind the murder. The last case of Dalpe's distinguished career involves many men who are engaged in treachery, robbery, and murder. A young bank clerk is murdered while he is carrying a large sum of money from the Hull bank where he is employed to an Ottawa clearinghouse. Dalpe, as the senior officer in Hull, is once again brought into a case that is followed by Canadians across the country. He must demonstrate much tact when his boss in Montreal, Chief Detective Jargaille pushes Dalpe to the background and assumes the lead detective role in the case.

Could the flippant but effective lawyer be helpful? Would the police question him again? Will there be more injuries or deaths?The struggle to discover hidden treasure brings further dangers, but the visitors witness a deepening of their friends' faith and spiritual understanding against a backdrop of continuing mystery and deception.
