CHARLES DARLING began writing poetry in the late sixties, crafting extraordinary poems out of ordinary, everyday events. At the same time, he was teaching courses in literature and writing for Capital Community College in Hartford, Connecticut, and serving as the Webmaster of a highly regarded Internet grammar and usage hotline. The images and moments that populate the poems in this first collection arise from ordinary events and the clutter of everyday life-Darling's Midwestern childhood, dogs riding in cars, balloons picked up for a bridal shower, watching his father's last haircut, the impermanence of granite mountains, and explaining things like roman numerals to his grandson Jayden over a series of months during Jayden's first year of life. All of these poems allow the commonplace facts of experience to take flight and remain aloft with the aid of Darling's ironic wit and thoughtful heart. Thus the discovery of crickets on the basement floor becomes a humorously religious experience, and driving across Connecticut on a dull, icy day with his sister's ashes in the back seat, accompanied by a recording of Mahler's Second Symphony, becomes a triumphant ride toward transcendent victory, light, and life. In September 2004 Darling was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor, an event that occasioned his retirement from teaching but did not stop him from writing some of his finest poetry in his final months. Unhappily, Charles Darling died on February 15, 2006.

The author writes, "One of the characters in Robert Frost's 'Death of a Hired Man' says, 'Home is that place where, when you go there, they have to let you in.' I have found that place in my marriage, around our dining room table for Thursday Night Dinners, with friends who have helped me make a mosaic out of the shards of my fractured past. Home, for me, means to belong, to feel wanted." - Connects the metaphor of home that runs through the stories of our faith - the Prodigal Son, the Son of Man has nowhere to call home, heaven as home - with the deep desire to belong and to feel wanted

Islamic scriptural sources offer potentially radical notions of equality. Yet medieval Islamic philosophers chose to establish a hierarchical, male-centered virtue ethics. In Gendered Morality, Zahra Ayubi rethinks the tradition of Islamic philosophical ethics from a feminist critical perspective. She calls for a philosophical turn in the study of gender in Islam based on resources for gender equality that are unlocked by feminist engagement with the Islamic ethical tradition. Developing a lens for a feminist philosophy of Islam, Ayubi analyzes constructions of masculinity, femininity, and gender relations in classic works of philosophical ethics. In close readings of foundational texts by Abu Hamid Muhammad al-Ghazali, Nasir-ad Din Tusi, and Jalal ad-Din Davani, she interrogates how these thinkers conceive of the ethical human being as an elite male within a hierarchical cosmology built on the exclusion of women and nonelites. Yet in the course of prescribing ethical behavior, the ethicists speak of complex gendered and human relations that contradict their hierarchies. Their metaphysical premises about the nature of the divine, humanity, and moral responsibility indicate a potential egalitarian core. Gendered Morality offers a vital and disruptive new perspective on patriarchal Islamic ethics and metaphysics, showing the ways in which the philosophical tradition can support the aims of gender justice and human flourishing.
