According to Bloom, American democracy has unwittingly played host to vulgarized continental ideas of nihilism and despair, and of relativism disguised as tolerance. Bloom makes a convincing case for the proposition that reading old books about the permanent questions could help reestablish reason and restore the soul. The book can easily be divided into three parts. The first part characterizes the moral and intellectual state of modern university students. He stated that students these days are in general nice. I choose the word carefully. They are not particularly moral or noble. He attributes these feelings to moral relativism, instant

Robert Fulford's Column About Saul Bellow, Allan Bloom, And Abe Ravelstein
Saul Bellow, allan bloom, and Abe Ravelstein by Robert Fulford
http://markov.utstat.toronto.edu/fulford/Bellow.html

Extractions: by Robert Fulford Globe and Mail , November 2, 1999) Saul Bellow, 84 years old as the century ends, has lately been spending most of his time on a novel frankly based on Allan Bloom, the great teacher and philosopher who in 1987 wrote an astonishingly successful critique of education, The Closing of the American Mind . Bellow urged Bloom to write that book, contributed the enthusiastic introduction that helped sell it, and for years sang Bloom's praises wherever he could. They were close friends until Bloom's death in 1992. Now Bellow is erecting a literary monument to his friend, titled Ravelstein . The opening section, also called Ravelstein, which ran in the Nov. 1 issue of the New Yorker , turns out to be prime Bellow: dense, funny, surprising, crammed with the powerful sense of life that marks all of his best writing. If the novel (due in April) is as good as the excerpt, it can only add to Bellow's already majestic reputation. Bloom's admirers, however, will not be unanimously grateful. The people who studied with him at Cornell, Toronto, and Chicago speak of him with awe as a great shaping force in their lives. He seems to have humbled even Bellow, not an easy chore, but Bellow obviously believes that greatness deserves frankness, whatever Bloom's other friends think. So he has made Bloom's intimate life part of the story. Remarkably, no reference to Bloom's homosexuality has previously appeared in printnot in the publicity that surrounded his best-seller, or his obituaries, or even his posthumously published book

He was 62. At the time of his death, he was co-director of the John M. Olin Center for Inquiry into the Theory and Practice of Democracy. Bloom was born in Indianapolis and received his graduate degrees at the University of Chicago. Over the course of his career, he also taught at Yale, Cornell, the University of Toronto, Tel Aviv University, and the University of Paris. What Bloom wrote eulogizing his teacher, Leo Strauss, can be said of him: "The story of a life in which the only real events were thoughts is easily told."

Extractions: Allan Bloom and the American Moment By: Robert O. Slater (From R. O. Slater, Essays on Democracy, Education and the American Experiment (Lima, Peru: Catholic University Press, 2001) I first saw Allan Bloom in February of 1980, at The University of Chicago. He was a professor in the Department of Philosophy and I was working on my PhD in education. That semester Bloom was teaching J. J. Rousseau's Emile. Bloom usually just taught one book in his course, and it was invariably a great book, although Emile, as he explained to us in our first class meeting, was not generally considered to be such. This was an assessment that Bloom felt to be mistaken. Emile, he said, had "hidden treasures." Rousseau believed that all of us are born good and free but are then brought up in a society which teaches us to deny our natural instincts and intuition and makes us unhappy. We are not naturally bad, he says, but are simply exposed to bad education which alienates us from ourselves and creates in us a false consciousness which prepares us for enslavement to the opinions of others. It makes us, to use the term David Riesman used in the Lonely Crowd, "other directed" as opposed to being "inner-directed" or self-directed. As long as we are primarily taking our direction and cues from others instead from ourselves, we cannot be autonomous. Autonomy is, or at least should be, the supreme goal of all education.

Extractions: Bloom, Allan Shakespeare on Love and Friendship . 160 p. 2000 Paper $12.00 0-226-06045-4 Spring 2000 "No one can make us love love as much as Shakespeare, and no one can make us despair of it as effectively as he does." William Shakespeare is the only classical author to remain widely popularnot only in America but throughout the worldand Allan Bloom argues that this is because no other writer holds up a truer mirror to human nature. Unlike the Romantics and other moderns, Shakespeare has no project for the betterment or salvation of mankindhis poetry simply gives us eyes to see what is there. In particular, we see the full variety of erotic connections, from the "star-crossed" devotions of Romeo and Juliet to the failed romance of Troilus and Cressida to the problematic friendship of Falstaff and Hal. This volume includes essays on five plays, Romeo and Juliet, Anthony and Cleopatra, Measure for Measure, Troilus and Cressida, and The Winter's Tale

He dies of AIDS, another corpse in a plague his political allies largely ignored or belittled. But victimology never tempted him. He almost seemed to embrace the role of outsider, to burnish it and touch it at regular intervals, like a talisman. He had what Bellow describes as "powerful unforgiving enemies" in the academic world and beyond. But "he didn't care a damn about any of them." I believe it. In fact, I believe most of what's in this book. A roman clef, Ravelstein doesn't require a very intricate clef to figure out. It's a rumination on Allan Bloom, the late professor of philosophy and conservative eminence. It is written by a friend and imbued with the honest distance that true friendship uniquely confers.

http://www.press.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/hfs.cgi/00/194.ctl

Extractions: Paper $12.50tx 0-226-06041-1 Fall 1996 Taking the classical view that the political shapes man's consciousness, Allan Bloom considers Shakespeare as a profoundly political Renaissance dramatist. He aims to recover Shakespeare's ideas and beliefs and to make his work once again a recognized source for the serious study of moral and political problems. In essays looking at Julius Caesar, Othello, and The Merchant of Venice, Bloom shows how Shakespeare presents a picture of man that does not assume privileged access for only literary criticism. With this claim, he argues that political philosophy offers a comprehensive framework within which the problems of the Shakespearean heroes can be viewed. In short, he argues that Shakespeare was an eminently political author. Also included is an essay by Harry V. Jaffa on the limits of politics in King Lear.
