Listening to America's Stories: Martin Marty Delivers 4th Annual Goldman Lecture

摘要

To cure their social trauma, Americans must learn to hear each other's "stories." This prescription was offered by Martin F. Marty, Fairfax M. Cone Distinguished Service Professor at the University of Chicago Divinity School, as he delivered the fourth annual Joanna Jackson Goldman Memorial Lecture. The lecture — part of a series devoted, according to Dr. Billington, to "issues that affect American values, self-perceptions and, ultimately, the long-term health of American democracy" — was delivered at the Library on April 18.
