After a wide-ranging study of conditions in the Church of Rome, the commission issued in 1537 a formal report, Advice . . . concerning the Reform of the Church . Disorder in the church, the report said, could be traced directly to the need for reform. The papal office was too secular. Both popes and cardinals needed to give more attention to spiritual matters and stop flirting with the world. Bribery in high places, abuses of indulgences, evasions of church law, prostitution in Rome: these and other offenses must cease.
The curriculum of the cathedral school was limited to grammar, rhetoric, logic, arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy—the seven liberal arts, so called because in ancient Rome their study had been reserved for liberi , “freemen.”

Rob Lustig calls the United States "the drug capital of the world," and he isn't talking about cocaine, heroin, or methamphetamine, nor even mass-marketed opioids like OxyContin. He is referring to sugar, a substance that, in 2013, the chief health officer of the Netherlands declared to be "addictive and the most dangerous drug of all times." "Addictive" is not too strong a term. A Harvard Medical School study found that people ingesting foods with a high glycemic index -meaning, in practice, junk foods that rapidly elevate blood sugar levels- got hungrier faster. On fMRI scans, they showed activation of the same brain regions stimulated by drugs such as cocaine or heroin. Never missing a profitable beat, multinational corporations vigorously market sugar-laden resignet concoctions to children, and prey on people who, owing to trauma, penury, and grinding oppression, are especially vulnerable to addictive substances.

The second great challenge to the tripartite division of knowledge into three great domains emerged out of the "humanistic" end of the tension between the two cultures. --> culture studies The three themes that have come together in cultural studies are: first, the central importance of gender studies and all kinds of "non-Eurocentric" studies to the study of historical social systems; second, the importance of local, very situated historical analysis, associated by many with a new "hermeneutic turn"; third, the assessment of the values involved in technological achievements in relation to other values.
