PORTALS

 

  • Augustine. Confessions

     Boethius. The Consolation of Philosophy

    Frankl, Viktor.  Man's Search for Meaning

  • Plato. Republic Book One; Phaedo; Symposium

  •  Watt, Helen. The Ethics of Pregnancy, Abortion, and Childbirth: Exploring Moral Choices in Childbearing. Taylor and Francis, 2016. The insights of this book are profoundly important for understanding the controversies surrounding pregnancy and their prolife ramifications. Especially innovative is the explication of four ways to view pregnancy, namely, the uni-personal, the neighborly, the maternal, and the spousal. The book’s crisp style and penetrating analyses yield fresh insights even for those familiar with prolife issues ranging from surrogacy and twinning to abortion. Highly recommended.
