SUMMARY:Philosophy Study Group
DESCRIPTION:We will begin a discussion of the book When They Severed Earth from Sky: How the Human Mind Shapes Myth (2004) by Elizabeth Wayland Barber and Paul T. Barber. For the 12th we’ll read the first ten chapters. This is a book about how myth operates in preliterate societies by taking advantage of aspects of the human mind that we are just beginning to learn about. Joseph Campbell it is not. \nUnfortunately\, this is not an inexpensive book\, though it’s still not like buying a textbook. A new paperback lists for $35 and even an ebook starts at $20. We’re going with it anyway\, since inflation has recently driven prices of many commodities significantly higher and we do our best to stay current. Perhaps you could negotiate to get the seller to include a dozen eggs. \n

SUMMARY:Peanuts\, Popcorn\, and Preemies: Wonderland Park and the Infantorium
DESCRIPTION:It was 1905 and Americans were in love with electricity. More than 400 trolley car parks sprang up around the country. But only a handful had an Infantorium\, a hospital (of sorts) that treated premature babies. For the price of admission\, guests could watch performers like Daredevil Dash and Nervo the Human Comet. There were trained ant-eaters and bears on bicycles. There were rides\, peanuts and cotton candy—all at 31st Avenue and Lake Street in South Minneapolis. \nBiography: Susan Hunter Weir has lived in South Minneapolis all of her live. She has spent the last 25 or so years researching the residents of Minneapolis Pioneers and Soldiers Memorial Cemetery\, the oldest existing cemetery in Minneapolis. Before she retired\, she was Coordinator of Advising for students in the visual and performing arts at the University of Minnesota. She served on Minneapolis’ Heritage Preservation Commission for nine years.
