From: "John Preston" <j.m.preston-AT-reading.ac.uk> To: "Feyerabend List" <feyerabend-AT-driftline.org> Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2005 11:10:24 +0100 Cc: John Preston <j.m.preston-AT-reading.ac.uk> Subject: [PKF] Feyerand and the new Pope Has anyone noticed Feyerabend's reference to the new pope?: [Around 1990?] 'Cardinal Ratzinger, the pope's expert on doctrinal affairs, gave a talk in Parma about Galileo and mentioned me in support of his views' (Killing Time: The Autobiography of Paul Feyerabend (1995), p.178). Feyerabend doesn't mention whether he appreciated this reference, but one of the more interesting (but perhaps not reverential?) photos in the middle pages of his autobiography is captioned with this very quote. John Preston, Department of Philosophy, The University of Reading, England. _______________________________________________ List address: feyerabend-AT-driftline.org Admin interface: http://lists.driftline.org/listinfo.cgi/feyerabend-driftline.org
