Allan Bloom Education in our times must try to find whatever there is in students that might yearn for completion, and to reconstruct the learning that would enable them autonomously to seek that completion. 1. The Closing of the American Mind 2. Plato’s The Republic (Bloom translation) 3. Emile: Or on education (Bloom translation) 4. Shakespeare on Love and Friendship 5. Introduction to the Reading of Hegel: Lectures on the Phemenology of Spirit 6. Shakespeare’s Politics (with Jaffa) 7. Politics and the Arts (Bloom translator) 8. Xenophon’s Socrates (with Leo Strauss) His book, The Closing of the American Mind, is essential reading in order to understand Bloom’s thought and the decay of the modern university. It was with this publication in1987 that Bloom argues that the social and political crisis of twentieth century America is really an intellectual crisis. Bloom blamed high technology, the sexual revolution, and the introduction of cultural diversity into the curriculum at the expense of the classics, which in turn produced students without wisdom or values. 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

13. The Claremont Institute - Allan Bloom And America allan bloom s Closing of the American Mind was published in 1987, and it has been bought, if not exactly read, by millions of Americans since then. http://www.claremont.org/writings/890101west.html

For the Study of Statesmanship and Political Philosophy Home Projects Writings Events ... Writings Allan Bloom and America By Thomas G. West Posted November 19, 2007 Allan Bloom's Closing of the American Mind was published in 1987, and it has been bought, if not exactly read, by millions of Americans since then. In many ways this was a very useful book. It brought into public view the scandal of the universities, which openly teach that there is no principled difference between good and evil. Bloom exposes and denounces the pervasive and mindless relativism has exhausted the spirit of the West so badly over the past century. Bloom's book is a diagnosis of the intellectual and moral ills of our day. If it is not a prescription, it contains at least some suggestions for a cure. The book is most sound, I will argue, in its description of current pathologies. It is partly sound, partly unsound in its account of their origin. It is least sound in its prescription for their healing. Allan Bloom introduced me to the study of political philosophy in three fine courses at Cornell in the mid-1960s. He caught my interest as no other teacher at Cornell did. He convinced me that political philosophy was about the life and death issues that matter most, and I have been pursuing it ever since. For that I will always be grateful. Bloom was one of the premier teachers of America during his lifetime, and his gifted students, of whom there were many, may be found today in important positions in the media, in government, and of course in academia.

In Bloom's view, we live in a love-impoverished age; he asks us to turn once more to Shakespeare because the playwright gives us a rich version of what is permanent in human nature without sharing our contemporary assumptions about erotic love.
