WN: Ron has been a longstanding friend–over many decades. I’ve been privileged to work with him on writing projects; read much of his writings; join the Contemplative Order of Sons of the Holy Cross Order co-founded by him; often visit in his home; hike new mountain trails with him–literally and metaphorically; and throughout the Pandemic and long before, have regular Kaffeeklatsch times with him and another good friend, Gerry Ayotte. Ron, other friends, and I also co-launched in fall, 2021, a monthly Ivan Illich: An Intellectual Journey Discussion Group with David Cayley.

Listen to “First Things” Podcast featuring Ron Dart on an episode called, “Myth, Modernity, and Mr. Peterson.”
Jordan Peterson, more than most, has played a prominent role in public debates since 2016. Many are those who demonize him. Many are those who uncritically genuflect before him. This lecture will reflect on the good that Peterson offers in the culture wars and some of his limitations.
