The DISH "Unbossed and unbought news and information you can use" Volume 6 Issue 22� Dedicated to the Dialogue on Race �June 6, 2003 Bit of History Leo Strauss (1899-1973) "The philosopher who, transcending the sphere of moral or political things, engages in the quest for the essence of all beings, has to give an account of his doings by answering the question 'why philosophy?' That question cannot be answered but with a view to the natural aim of man which is happiness, and in so far as man is by nature a political being, it cannot be answered but within a political framework." American philosopher Leo Strauss was born in Hesse, Germany. A student of philosophy, natural sciences and mathematics, he worked as a researcher for Jewish studies in Berlin. In 1932, Strauss fled Nazi Germany, eventually arriving in the United States. From 1938-1949, he taught at the new School for Social Research, then at the University of Chicago from 1949 to 1967, Claremont Men's College in 1968-69 and St. John's College until his death in 1973. Strauss was the Robert Maynard Hutchins Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus in Political Science at the University of Chicago. According to his biographers, the fact that so many of his students followed him into the field of political philosophy is a testament to his extraordinary influence as a teacher. Known for his controversial interpretations of the great thinkers, among them Plato and Machiavelli, Strauss was especially critical of modern political philosophy. He argued it lacked the ability to render value judgements on even the worst political regimes. As a model for how political philosophy should proceed, Strauss held up the work of men like Plato and Xenophon (431-355 BC), the Greek soldier and author who admired the conservative militarism of Socrates.
