| Summary: | In June 2015, at Duquense University's biennial Philosophy of Communication conference, hosted by the Department of Communication & Rhetorical Studies, in order to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of Listening/Journal of Communication Ethics, Religion, and Culture (formerly Listening/Journal of Religion and Culture), Thomas Poole Pickett read selections from his poetic work, The Offering. This reading, which held all in attendance spellbound, followed a panel focused on philosophy of communication and poetry and marked, in performative fashion -indeed, ushered in -what I will identify as a "poetic turn" in philosophy of communication. As the purpose of Listening/Journal of Communication Ethics, Religion, and Culture is to be attentive to the presence of ideas and their work in the world within a given historical moment, calling forth their expression in a voice to which we may give ear, and because of the significance of this embodied performative event and its coincidence with the fiftieth anniversary of Listening, it seemed appropriate to present an issue of the journal dedicated to the complete text of Thomas Poole Pickett's remarkable poem, which speaks of a transcendent reality that lends its truth to what Russell Kirk terms "the permanent things." |
