Sean Wilson <whoooo26505@xxxxxxxxx> added 02. How Roman is America -- And Is It Getting Worse?: Synopsis: This lecture explores the relationship of antiquity to current Western Civilization, and in particular explores the question of whether American culture is becoming more and more "Roman." The lecture explores the cultural legacies of Rome and Greece and asks whether the influence of the Greeks is become more and more dormant in American culture. Suggestions are made as to what could reduce the trend. (Also, the lecture provides an introduction to the idea of "classical liberalism.")
