Mortimer Adler<\/strong><\/h2><\/h1><\/div>

\"\"M<\/span>ortimer J. Adler, a precocious student (and later critic) of philosopher John Dewey at Columbia University, had also been attracted to the University of Chicago in the 1930s. Hutchins lui avait trouv\u00e9 des postes en philosophie, en psychologie et \u00e0 la facult\u00e9 de droit de l’universit\u00e9 de Chicago.<\/p>\n

Mortimer Adler with Indexing for Great Books of the Western World<\/p><\/div>\n

Adler \u00e9tait un \u00e9vang\u00e9liste en faveur d’une \u00e9ducation large et lib\u00e9rale et un critique virulent de la sp\u00e9cialisation disciplinaire qui commen\u00e7ait \u00e0 porter ses fruits dans les universit\u00e9s am\u00e9ricaines. Ses arguments passionn\u00e9s et ceux de Hutchins en faveur d’un programme d’\u00e9tudes de premier cycle bas\u00e9 sur les textes classiques de la civilisation occidentale ont d\u00e9clench\u00e9 des ann\u00e9es de d\u00e9bats stimulants, bien qu’acrimonieux, \u00e0 l’universit\u00e9 dans les ann\u00e9es 1930. La croyance d’Adler dans l’exposition des \u00e9tudiants de premier cycle aux classiques correspondait \u00e0 l’opinion de Hutchins selon laquelle \u00ab\u00a0la nation a besoin de plus de licenci\u00e9s instruits et de moins de docteurs ignorants\u00a0\u00bb. On entendit bient\u00f4t des gens r\u00e9citer : \u00ab\u00a0Il n’y a pas d’autre Dieu qu’Adler, et Hutchins est son proph\u00e8te.\u00a0\u00bb On a \u00e9galement entendu des \u00e9tudiants chanter un vieux standard du Nouvel An avec un nouveau refrain, \u00ab\u00a0Should auld Aquinas be forgot\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n

Plus tard, Adler a aid\u00e9 Hutchins \u00e0 achever le travail \u00e9ditorial sur le canon unique de 54 volumes de l’histoire intellectuelle occidentale de Britannica, Great Books of the Western Worl<\/em>d. L’ensemble a \u00e9t\u00e9 publi\u00e9 en 1952, l’ann\u00e9e m\u00eame o\u00f9 Adler a quitt\u00e9 l’Universit\u00e9 de Chicago. En d\u00e9pit de son s\u00e9rieux intellectuel (d’Hom\u00e8re, d’Aristote et d’Aquin \u00e0 Freud), Britannica a vendu \u00ab\u00a0Benton’s Folly\u00a0\u00bb aux Am\u00e9ricains ordinaires avec un grand succ\u00e8s.<\/p>\n

Au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 1960, la 14e \u00e9dition de l’Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica montrait son \u00e2ge. \u00c0 cette \u00e9poque, Benton avait \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 secr\u00e9taire d’\u00c9tat adjoint (il a imagin\u00e9 la Voix de l’Am\u00e9rique) et s\u00e9nateur des \u00c9tats-Unis (un d\u00e9mocrate du Connecticut et le premier \u00e0 d\u00e9noncer le s\u00e9nateur Joe McCarthy).<\/p>\n

\"\"Lorsque Benton r\u00e9unit son \u00e9quipe de r\u00e9daction pour pr\u00e9parer les bases de la 15e \u00e9dition, il trouve Adler \u00e0 San Francisco, o\u00f9 il termine son ouvrage en deux volumes, The Idea of Freedom<\/em> (1958-61). Hutchins, qui s’\u00e9tait retir\u00e9 en Californie pour diriger le groupe de r\u00e9flexion Fund for the Republic, cr\u00e9\u00e9 avec l’aide de la Fondation Ford. Le Fonds avait contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 financer l’Institut de recherche philosophique d’Adler \u00e0 San Francisco.<\/p>\n

\"Adler,En d\u00e9cembre 1962, alors qu’Adler f\u00eate son soixanti\u00e8me anniversaire, son institut ne va nulle part, son mariage a \u00e9chou\u00e9 et il est endett\u00e9. Ainsi, il \u00e9tait d’humeur r\u00e9ceptive lorsque William Benton lui a tendu la main : \u00ab\u00a0Revenez \u00e0 Chicago, Mortimer, et aidez-moi \u00e0 cr\u00e9er un nouveau et plus grand…\u00a0\u00bb. Encyclop\u00e6dia Britannica. <\/em>Non seulement je vous verserai un salaire princier et financerai l’Institut, mais je soutiendrai \u00e9galement une s\u00e9rie de conf\u00e9rences Benton \u00e0 l’Universit\u00e9 de Chicago qui pourront \u00eatre le premier pas vers une nouvelle carri\u00e8re pour vous – et une \u00e9ducation pour eux.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/div>
