Abstract

In my 4,400-word review essay "Walter J. Ong's 1981 Account of Matters of Deep Philosophical and Cultural Import," I highlight the life and times of the American Jesuit Renaissance specialist and cultural historian and pioneering media ecology theorist Walter J. Ong (1912-2003; Ph.D. in English, Harvard University, 1955) in the first part of my commemorative essay (pp. 2-11). Then, in the second part (pp. 12-15), I commemorate his account of matters of deep philosophical and cultural import in his subsection "Procedures: Understanding and Asymmetric Opposition" in his 1981 book Fighting for Life: Contest, Sexuality [Gender], and Consciousness (Cornell University Press, pp. 29-34), the published version of his 1979 Messenger Lectures at Cornell University.
