Description:

Featuring nine lectures given during the 1999-2000 academic year at Yale, the University of Michigan, Harvard, Cambridge, Oxford, Princeton, the University of Utah, and Stanford, this volume represents the work of scholars in subjects like philosophy, history, literature, sociology, religion, music, and physiology. The lectures concern themselves with a range of topics including goodness and advice, spirit visions, poetry and value, the end of German culture, happiness, rhetoric, human rights as politics and idolatry, tradition and convention, and ecological collapses of pre-industrial societies.
