Bede was the most learned scholar of his day not only in England but in all of Western Europe. Much of the what the world knows about England before 700 AD is based on a history written in Latin by Benedictine monk, Bede, who is often called the father of English history. “A History of the English Church and People” was complete about 731 AD. ![]() ![]() ![]() Her researcher instincts activated, Rooney learned that Cher Ami, a British homing pigeon, helped save a group of American troops known as the “Lost Battalion” during a horrific, multiday World War I battle. “A student named Brian referenced Cher Ami in a poem and said to me, ‘Look it up!’ Of course, I did-and it blew my mind that this pigeon was so heroic and is stuffed and on display in the Smithsonian.” Rooney, perhaps best known for her 2017 bestseller, Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk, says her interest in a feathered narrator was sparked by one of her students at DePaul University, where she is an English professor. “If you watch them, they’re such good fliers. . . .

Hare’s seminar suggests that the detached sadism and lack of empathy which criminal psychopaths demonstrate can be seen in the wider world, where they cause great harm despite being only 1 percent of the population. Hare contends that “psychopaths are quite incurable” due to brain abnormalities, and that his research provides the best methods for rooting them out. Ronson interviewed Hare and took his seminar.
