Eugene Halton (1950- )
A member of the faculty at the University of Notre Dame, where he teaches sociology and humanities, and author of such books as  Bereft of Reason (University of Chicago Press, 1995), Meaning and Modernity (University of Chicago Press, 1986), and (coauthor with M. Csikszentmihalyi), The Meaning of Things (Cambridge University Press, 1981), Halton's interest in Barfield stems from his commitment to "mapping out a non-modern revived animism."
