Helen Vendler on Cultural Democracy and the Arts

May 7, 2004 8:37 AM - comments (0)

Michael Madison was kind enought to point me to this link of Helen Vendler's speech to her 2004 Jefferson Lecture. It's provocative on matters of the relative value of philosophy and literature to a humanistic education. It would not be hard to embed some of her points in a Free Culture argument as well.
