Educate Yourself Through Elliot
Do you crave knowledge? Do you want to be able to hold your own in educated discourse? Are there gaps in your education you've always wanted to fill?
I can help. I have a PhD in Jewish History and over the course of six months, I will be reading 26 important books and sharing my knowledge with you. I will summarize the books' contents and discuss their most famous passages and ideas from my perspective as a right-wing American and Orthodox Jew.
Plato's "Republic," Rousseau's "Emile," Zangwill's "The Melting Pot," Melville's "Moby Dick," Hayek's "The Road to Serfdom," Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason," Betty Friedan's "Feminine Mystique," Shakespeare's "King Lear," and Dostoevsky's "The Idiot," are just some of the works I will be covering. Are you ready for an intellectual journey?
