• EIGHTH ANNUAL ABBEVILLE INSTITUTE SUMMER SCHOOL, "Why the Modern South has a Great Literature," Seabrook Island, South Carolina, July 25-30, 2010.
  A civilization can be known through its philosophy, architecture, and political institutions, but it is perhaps best known through its literature (e.g., Homer, Shakespeare, Dickens). It is widely ecognized that the 20th century South has produced an extraordinary number of great writers. The purpose of the conference is to pursue the sources, aspects, and enduring value of this achievement.
  

Professor Donald Livingston has been published in the most recent edition (Fall, 2009) of The Intercollegiate Review. His essay is titled David Hume and the Conservative Tradition. The Intercollegiate Review is published by the Intercollegiate Studies Institute, called simply "the ISI" by many.

As soon as Professor Livingston's article is available in the archives on the ISI website, we'll happily post the link. Strongly consider taking a good, hard look at the ISI. They are a worthy ally in our attempts to maintain our best traditions.
