Paul Joseph Krause
Hello world! My name is Paul Krause. I am the editor of VoegelinView and a teacher, literary critic, and poet. I graduated from Baldwin Wallace University, Yale, and the University of Buckingham where I studied with Sir Roger Scruton prior to his death. I work as an Instructor of Humanities and teach literature and philosophy. I am also the author of multiple books and a contributor to several academic volumes, including Muses of a Fire (2024), Finding Arcadia (2023), Making Sense of Diseases and Disasters (2022), The Odyssey of Love (2021), The Politics of Plato (2020), and The College Lecture Today (2019). This channel exists as a resource of education in the humanities, mostly: philosophy, political philosophy, art & literature, and theology.
