The Veritas Review (VR) is a humanities journal of the Abigail Adams Institute (AAI), based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. As we wrote in our inaugural issue more than three years ago, harmony is at the heart of AAI and the VR, and we continue to encourage all our students, alumni, and friends to come together in understanding through the arts, interpretation, and thought. This journal also serves as a written touchpoint for the ongoing humanities programs and events of the Abigail Adams Institute, and exists as much for our graduates and alumni as for the current students and faculty. The staff and the editors are all proud to be part of this effort to promote humanistic inquiry and expression. We hope you will join us in this work.
