SUMMARY:Does Truth Matter?
DESCRIPTION:This event is a facilitated discussion of these and related questions about one of the oldest topics in philosophy: truth. After a brief introduction to some basic concepts and distinctions\, Dr. Tepley will lead the audience in a conversation about these questions. The goal is not to tell attendees what to believe but rather to give them the opportunity explore these questions\, and possible answers to them\, together as a group. If you like big ideas and stimulating conversation\, then this event is for you. Come ready to think\, to share\, and to learn! \nAdmission is free\, pre-registration recommended. \n			\n				Register for Does Truth Matter\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About the Presenter:\nDr. Joshua Tepley is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Philosophy Department at Saint Anselm College\, where he has taught for the last decade. He received his B.A. in Philosophy from Bucknell University (2004) and his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Notre Dame (2013).

SUMMARY:Book Signing: Portsmouth (a novel)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book signing with author James Polus\nGet a chance to meet and speak with the author of Portsmouth. \nBooks will be available for sale in the gift shop. Admission is free\, no RSVP required. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About the Author:\nOriginally from Upstate New York\, a graduate of Hobart College and Columbia University\, and a former life long employee of IBM\, Polus has an amazing wife and four accomplished children. Serving in senior financial positions afforded him the opportunity to live in England for one year\, followed thereafter by four years in France. He considers himself as a citizen of the world to complement his proud American heritage. \nJame Polus published his first book\, entitled “The Dream of AO” in May 2021\, followed by the sequel\, “Dreams of Lies and Delusions”\, published in 2022. The historical backdrop is the Indus Valley civilization\, circa 1700 BCE. He believes we can reference ancient civilizations to remind us that the timeless themes of love\, courage\, honor and redemption have long competed with treachery\, deceit\, hatred and lust. Professional storytellers perfectly recited long\, epic morality tales\, illustrating for all peoples the lessons for a virtuous life. Battles over dogma\, spiritual beliefs\, and rituals date well before written texts. \nPolus enjoys creative and imaginary fiction using strong characters to espouse his ideas on human purpose and human equality. The motifs of dreaming and oral traditions serve as the backdrop for his writing. Most of his characters practice mindfulness and are skilled in various forms of meditation. As an avid cyclist\, he likes to pedal alone on quiet country roads or traverse along the long ocean stretches\, imagining the lives of his characters.\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Buy Portsmouth by James Polus\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About the Book:\nHistorical fiction comes to New England with the epic novel\, “Portsmouth\,” a classical saga reliving the story of a 1623 fictitious family and twelve successive generations that bring New England seacoast history to life.Memorable characters interact with real-life personalities and historical events that shaped America. From the early Puritans to the Sons of Liberty and the Revolutionary War\, up through the Great Depression and World War II\, the novel brings American notables such as George Washington\, Ona Judge Staines\, Major General Fitz-John Porter\, Frank Jones\, and Celia Thaxter into the reader’s imagination. \n The novel “Portsmouth” celebrates the 400th anniversary of the founding of this historic seaport\, so reminiscent of colonial times
