2. Friends: I want to join what I hope is a chorus of thanks for initiating this rich set of dialogs. I have loved the selection of topics and the thoughtful exploration of them. I admire the emphasis on linking scholars with practitioners. I appreciate the idea, new to me but implicit, I think, of the history of philanthropy as a subset of the history of ideas and an intersecting discipline with philosophy as well as with the more vogue disciplines mentioned in your initiating essay. I have even felt some gratitude for the occasionally painful academic prose (e.g. “historiography of humanitarianism,” “heterodoxy”) as a reminder to that our knowing the meaning of certain words and phrases doesn’t provide license to inflict them upon others! I am not finding time to read all of the posts but I’m very much enjoying those I do. Again, thanks.
