We’re saddened to mark the passing of Dr. Eva Brann, a philosopher, original thinker, and longest-serving professor at St. John's College. We are honored that she contributed nearly a dozen essays and conversations to Renovatio and graciously offered her insights toward the journal's formation. Dr. Brann will be sorely missed, but her wisdom and wit live on through her words. https://renovatio.zaytuna.edu/authors/eva-brann
