Summary

This course is an interdisciplinary series of connected lectures  delivered by eminent scholars from several colleges and universities.  Each professor addresses an area of personal expertise and  focuses not only on the matter at hand, but on the larger  story-on the links between the works and the figures discussed.  The lectures address-in chronological sequence-a  series of major works that have shaped the ongoing development  of Western thought both in their own right and in cultural  dialogue with other traditions. In the process, the course  engages many of the most perennial and far-reaching questions  that we face in our daily lives.
