----------------- HES POSTING ----------------- Re: Knight on the Middle Ages Actually he did that. "Is Modern Thought Anti-Intellectual?", written in 1934 was an attack on neo-medievalism. And then in 1940 came "God and Professor Adler and Logic" with this memorable line: "And now abide Positivism, Pragmatism, and Scholasticism, these three: but the worst of these is Scholasticism." And his mentor, Frederick Kershner wrote a book with a title that is more problematic today: Those Gay Middle Ages. Same basic argument as Knight.
