Welcome to Litsy!

Personal opinion: Buckley is upset that Yale didn‘t live up to his expectations. Not enough Christianity, too many agnostics and atheists on faculty; too much emphasis on collectivism and the general welfare, too little praise in individualism; too much emphasis on academic freedom, not enough on making faculty teach the values he believes in. He would have been much happier if he‘d transferred to Georgetown or a seminary, in my humble opinion.

I'm lucky to live near Yale which has an amazing rare books #library that's open to the public. They even have an original Gutenberg Bible (bottom right corner). #sizzlinsummerbooks

Here's some more #bookporn from the Beinecke library. So pretty 😍#awesomelibraries
