Via online issue. 3 pages., Report on Wendell Berry's remarks for the 2012 Jefferson Lecture in the Humanities, sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Speaker suggests appreciating the word "economy" for its original meaning of "household management. ... I mean, not economics, but economy, the making of the human household upon the earth; the arts of adapting kindly the many human households to the earth's many ecosystems and human neighborhoods. This is the economy that the most public and influential economists never talk about, the economy that is the primary vocation and responsibility of every one of us."
