Stanlis, Distinguished Professor of Humanities, Emeritus, at Rockford College and one of the foremost scholars of Edmund Burke and Robert Frost.

Stanlis placed Burke firmly in the tradition of Western natural law reasoning. Stanlis has also published a number of essays and articles on Frost, including Robert Frost: The Poet as Philosopher (2007). 2008-02-03T18:25:00-05:00 http://www.kirkcenter.org/index.php/news/bookman-rss/ http://www.kirkcenter.org/index.php/news/bookman-rss/#When:14:36:01Z Since the Bookman is now offering web-only articles, we now offer, in addition to the RSS feed for Kirk Center news items, a syndication feed for all Bookman articles.
