  • Past Event
  • Location

The purpose of this interactive lecture is to demonstrate some of the delights of bending language—in the first place English—to its limits, as well as to show that there are serious things to be learned from doing so.  For maximal enjoyment, bring a pen and some scrap paper!

Please join us for this lecture by Dr Joshua Katz, Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, at 5PM on Tuesday, April 9th at the Athenaeum, 26 East Gaston Street.

About the Speaker

Joshua T. Katz is a Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. Prior to this appointment he was Cotsen Professor in the Humanities and Professor of Classics at Princeton University. A graduate of Yale, Oxford, and Harvard, he is widely published in the languages, literatures, and cultures of the ancient, medieval, and to some extent modern world. He is also a regular contributor to such publications as City Journal, First Things, The New Criterion, and The Wall Street Journal. While he has received many national and international awards for his scholarship and his teaching, he is perhaps proudest of being named a Hero of Intellectual Freedom by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni in 2020 and winning the Jeane Kirkpatrick Prize for Academic Freedom in 2023.
