American Scriptures: Close Reading of the Gettysburg Address
Starts Tue, Oct 6, 10:30 AM
About the class
This Alvernia University Seniors College class takes a close look at important documents from American history, with attention to the Gettysburg Address. The group reads the text carefully and asks a simple question: do we know these documents as well as we think we do? Together you look at what surprises come up when you dig into the words themselves and the historical setting around them.
Rabbi Brian I Michelson presents the series. Sessions meet Tuesday mornings at the McGlinn Conference Center, 460 Saint Bernardine Street, Reading. Come ready to read and discuss.
