The beginning of Utopia is set in the Low Countries, and opens with a meeting in Antwerp between Thomas More and the Flemish humanist Peter Giles, after More hadvisited the Cathedral of our Lady in Antwerp. Giles introduced More to a fictitious traveller who had sailed the Seven Seas. But the meeting between More and Giles in Antwerp was real.The Stichting Thomas More seeks to promote the interaction between Dutch scholars and students and Catholic intellectuals in other countries. Ernst Hirsch Ballin participated in a trip to the United States made by Dutch and Flemish scholars in 1995 and organized by this foundation. In the early 1970s he studied Thomist philosophy at the University of Amsterdam with the Dominican professor B.A.M. Barendse, who once held one of the chairs endowed by what is now the Stichting Thomas More. |  Aggiungi al Carrello |
