Description

The number of students majoring in the Humanities — including English Lit — has plummeted everywhere. So maybe it is for losers. Come hear Emeritus Professor of English Dan Ritchie explore literary ways of dealing with failure in contrast to the rivalry that dominates the losers and winners of our culture wars. Dan's talk is based on his essay in the Winter 2026 issue of "National Affairs."
