Subject: Hans Jonas quotation (for HUMANIST)


******************************************************************
I am trying to locate the source of a remark attributed to the late
philosopher Hans Jonas. I have tried the usual philosophy bboards
without success, and a friend thought the readers of HUMANIST might be
able to help. The quotation is this:

"..the capacity for feeling, which arose in all
organisms, is the mother value of all."

Could someone please mail me the source of this quotation? Any help will
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Subject: Sanskrit transliteration


This notice is being posted to HUMANIST, CORPORA, AHC, ANCIEN-L, ANE -
apologies for any duplicaion.

A colleague off-list is doing Sanskrit transliteration using WordPerfect 5.2
(for Windows I believe), and is having a problem with macrons not appearing
on capitalised letters.

If you have any expertise, please advise off-list.

Subject: Multimedia inquiry

Has anyone ever used an interactive multi-media package called "Literature
Navigator"? I am interested in learning whether it might be suitable for use
in an undergraduate English course. Has this software been reviewed at all?
