Michaelmas takes its name from the Feast of St Michael and All Angels, a feast which marks the beginning of the academic year for the medieval universities, such as Paris, Oxford, Cambridge, Pavia, and others, and so for institutions like King’s College and King’s-Edgehill School. In School and in Church we learn to think, to sing and to dance with the Angels, those pure intellectual beings who move our imaginations and strengthen our understanding and thus redeem the discursive thinking (ratio) which consumes and destroys us and our world.
