What is The Hazelnut?
The Hazelnut is dedicated to challenging the neo-Marxist and Postmodern dominance of higher education and literary studies. The Hazelnut seeks to restore wonder and joy in the reading (and writing) of literature.
I am a literature MA whose work has appeared in The Epoch Times, Satori, The Hemingway Review, Intellectual Takeout, American Thinker, American Essence, Catholic Match, One Peter Five, Crisis Magazine, the Mises Institute, The Remnant, The St. Austin Review, and the Albertus Magnus Institute. I teach literature at a private academy, and I'm dedicated to spreading a love for literature as a vehicle for truth and beauty.
About the Title
“And with this insight he also showed me a little thing, the size of a hazelnut, lying in the palm of my hand. It seemed to me as round as a ball. I gazed at it and thought, ‘What can this be?’ The answer came thus, ‘It is everything that is made.’ I marveled how this could be, for it was so small it seemed it might fall suddenly into nothingness.”
