Excellent. My heart leaps up for Anscombe!

An ethicist friend in the UK, who was a student of hers, says she also had behind her home a garden which she loved, and where her and Peter Geach's seven children played. I think they all saw the Lord!

Note the gardening spade and the straw hat. So cool.

Jesus appearing to Mary Magdalene as a gardener.

Another one on the gardener theme. As a piddling-gardener I get a kick out of these.

`

I believe it’s “Noli Me Tangere” by Janssens-Wildens? Love the hat!

Spranger’s “Noli Me Tangere”

Giordano Luca’s (?) “Noli Me Tangere”


A HAPPY AND BLESSED EASTER TO YOU, AC Beach Patrol!!

A happy and blessed Easter to you as well!!

Great tidbit. The recent passing of prominent analytic philosopher David Braine, also a student of Anscombe's and a Catholic convert from her influence, reminded me of the great legacy Anscombe and Geach left.
