Abstract

In my 5,156-word review essay "Thomas J. Farrell's Reflections on His March 2025 OEN Article 'Fareed Zakaria and Ezra Klein on President Trump's Foreign Policy,' and Walter J. Ong's Thought," I succinctly highlight and further discuss certain aspects of my wide-ranging and, at times, deeply personal 28-800-word 665th OEN article (dated March 24, 2025) -- to which I provide a link in the text of my 5,156-word review essay. In my 5,156-word review essay, I also discuss the relevant thought of the American Jesuit Renaissance specialist and cultural historian and pioneering media ecology theorist Walter Jackson Ong, Jr. (1912-2003; Ph.D. in English, Harvard University, 1955) of Saint Louis University, the Jesuit university if the City of St. Louis, Missouri -- where, over the years, I took five courses from Father Ong.
