EarthDiverse: Understanding the Classical World
Interested in World History? Consider enroling in Peter Dornauf’s course entitled “Understanding the Classical World and its Impact on Modern Life.” This series of 8 talks, from our Introductory World History series, explores and reveals the primal influences of classical Greece & Rome, and explains how these influences manifest today and get played out in the modern world. Knowing these things helps not only with our sense of identity, but also provides us with a point of reference against which to measure our values and make critical judgments.
Begins Wed 19 October, 11:00am-1:00pm for 8 consecutive weeks.
EarthDiverse, 401 Anglesea Street (3 shops north of the Hamilton Central Bus Station, located upstairs). For more information and registration please visit our website.
