About Me
- Name: Horace Jeffery Hodges
- Location: Seoul, South Korea
I am a retired professor. I last taught at Ewha Womans University, mostly composition, research writing, and cultural issues, but also the occasional graduate seminar on Gnosticism and Johannine theology and the occasional undergraduate course on European history. My doctorate is in history (U.C. Berkeley), with emphasis on religion and science. My thesis is on John's gospel and Gnosticism. I'm also an award-winning writer, and I recommend my novella, The Bottomless Bottle of Beer, to anyone interested. I'm originally from the Arkansas Ozarks, but my academic career -- funded through doctoral and postdoctoral fellowships (e.g., Fulbright, Naumann, Lady Davis) -- has taken me through Texas, California, Switzerland, Germany, Australia, and Israel and has landed me in Seoul, South Korea. I've also traveled to Mexico, visited much of Europe, including Moscow, and touched down briefly in a few East Asian countries. Hence: "Gypsy Scholar."

I am wont to plunge into our Euro-Existential origins and find paradox there...
Heidegger would say that you are both right and wrong. On cue, his students would agree.
But are we allowed to cut our own clearing in the woods?

Excuse me, I agree One is loneliest number but the number one is symbolized the "First" and the creators of the Universe, something say: He is "Without Beginning and Without End" or He Causes to Become"... just curious... Thanks for your time... *Bones*
Try This: One Is The Loneliest Number.
