Soft Despotism with Paul Rahe
23rd November 2009
I knew Paul slightly when he was a graduate student at Yale and I was an undergraduate — we hung out with the same people, the ‘ancient history/classics table’ in Silliman — and he is what my wife characterizes as ’scary smart’. This series will be well worth savoring.
Peter Robinson’s Uncommon Knowledge series is always fascinating, and I highly recommend that you bookmark it and check it every week.
