 The Journal of Speculative Philosophy, 1867–1893
In 1910, Morris Raphael Cohen, distinguished American philosopher at New York City College, divided the history of modern American philosophy into three periods.
Cohen labeled these three periods of modern American philosophy “the theologic, the metaphysical, and the scientific.” Though I question the adequacy of Cohen’s labels for these periods, he was certainly correct that American philosophy had become increasingly secular.
According to Cohen’s scheme, the three periods corresponded to three philosophical journals, the Journal of Speculative Philosophy (JSP), established in St. Louis in 1867, the Philosophical Review, established at Cornell University in 1892, and the Journal of Philosophy, Psychology, and Scientific Methods, which was founded at Columbia University in 1904.

 Regional Review: Letter from Somerville, Massachusetts
But only if the musicians and we, the audience, "can get it." ¶ The three musicians -- guitarist Joe Morris, saxophonist Joe Maneri, and Maneri's violinist son Matt -- most likely wouldn't perform Gershwin, though; free jazz from their recent "Three Men Walking" CD was the expected fare.
While the guitarist and violinist remained seated throughout, their eyes darting from instruments to one another, the saxophonist occasionally let a long-held bass note lift him out of his chair.
To see Morris and the Maneris interact was to peer into the heart of improvisation.

One of the infrequent pleasures of ethnic weddings and bar or bat mitzvahs in the era before DJs began contributing to musical unemployment (may God forgive me) was the chance encounter with jazz players hiding out in those bands.
