Boston College alumni Eric Buzzetti and Devin Stauffer, who both earned doctorates in political science from BC in 1998, have edited a landmark collection of writings by Christopher Bruell, a highly regarded Boston College professor of political science who died in 2024. A student of the renowned political philosopher Leo Strauss, Bruell was considered one of the great modern interpreters of classical and modern political philosophy. Christopher Bruell: Essays of Five Decades on Philosophy and Philosophers (SUNY Press, 2025) includes almost all the essays, lectures, and book chapters that Bruell published during his scholarly career. The volume also includes three previously unpublished essays. The essays take up a wide range of topics, including Strauss, liberal education, the problem of relativism, the American Founding, the nature of citizenship, and the question of happiness. Above all, the collection focuses on the recovery of classical political philosophy and includes pathbreaking essays on Thucydides, Plato, Xenophon, and Aristotle. Buzzetti is on the faculty of Concordia University in Montréal. Stauffer is a professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
