Last Saturday, at the Kingston Library, we had a very well-attended second session of the new year-long monthly lecture series -
Understanding Anger. The previous session had focused on anger through the lens of Greek tragedy and epic. This one looked at this prevalent and perennial passion through multiple perspectives afforded by another key source for Western thought and culture -- the Jewish Scriptures.
As always, there's many more people interested than can attend -- sometimes a factor of time, but most often of place -- so we video-recorded the session (you can
watch the video here). And as usual, although I came armed with many notes and a few handouts to structure the session, a number of digressions -- all quite interesting -- added some other elements to the discussions.
