13:02Now PlayingIn this compelling conversation, ISI’s Dan McCarthy interviews Dr. James Hankins, distinguished professor of history at Harvard University, to delve into the vital importance of Western civilization in higher education today.
Hankins discusses the roots and relevance of classical education, offering a passionate defense of its formative power in shaping minds and souls. He explores how many modern universities have marginalized the Western canon, replacing it with ideologically-driven curricula—and what’s been lost in the process.
How did we get here? Why does it matter? And what can be done to restore a richer, more humane educational tradition?
Whether you’re a student, teacher, or simply someone who cares about the direction of our culture, this intellectually rich and urgent interview is not to be missed.
