Gilbert’s contributions include his 1891 Master’s thesis\, “The Demes of Attica\,” and his pioneering role as the first Black faculty member at Paine College\, where he taught Greek and Latin.\nIn this special discussion\, Professor Lee offers unique insights into the life of this extraordinary scholar and Philhellene. Don’t miss this important exploration. \nAbout John W.I. Lee:\nJohn W.I. Lee is a Professor of History at UC Santa Barbara.

Hruška’s poems uncover realities we may have sensed but have never before found as precisely and unsettlingly articulated. \nJan Zikmund\, the co-editor of the recently published The Book of Prague\, will discuss the short stories included in the anthology that present Prague in a completely new light. These stories take us into less-visited corners of Prague – from the steep streets of the proudly edgy Žižkov neighborhood to the flood-ravaged suburb of Karlín\, from the tensions experienced by the city’s Romani community to the dehumanizing post-war redevelopment of areas like Libeň\, proving that there are always facets to a city’s character you would never have imagined.
