Great Books Discussion Group

All readings are from the Great Books Foundation anthology Standing Down: From Warrior to Civilian. Join us for stimulating discussions of selections from great world literature. Each discussion will be guided by a trained leader who may ask questions, but not answer them. Using the ‘shared inquiry’ method, readers explore their understanding of a thought-provoking work of literature or philosophy.

This month's readings: 

Letters by New York Legislature/George Washington

"On Discipline in Democratic Armies" by Alexis de Tocqueville 

"Gettysburg Address" by Abraham Lincoln
